AlphaMadera's AlphaVal page computes Kirby Corporation's fair value using a multi-method blend (DCF, comparable-multiples, and Graham-style intrinsic value), then compares it to the current market price to flag KEX as undervalued, fairly valued, or overvalued.

What is Kirby Corporation's fair value?

Plain-Language Summary

Our base-case estimate uses a two-stage discounted cash flow model based on free cash flow. We then blend that result with the average analyst price target of $151.33 from 29 analysts, using a 25% weight on analyst consensus. That produces an estimated intrinsic value of $154.04 per share.

Key Risks

P/E alone misleads — earnings depressed by growth investment
Cyclical or commodity businesses may be misclassified as platforms
Terminal value dominance suggests sensitivity to long-run assumptions
