Warnings
Wall Street's average price target is $135.50 (from 27 analysts). Our estimate is 67% below the consensus -- consider that gap carefully.
This stock is 51% below its 52-week high, with weak or declining earnings. That combination often signals real trouble, even though the valuation below is based on other fundamentals.
Key Risks
- Standard 10-year DCF produces unreliable terminal values for cyclicals
- 'Cheap' P/E at cycle peak is the most common value trap — normalize first
- Captive finance subsidiaries have different risk profiles from manufacturing
