Plain-Language Summary

Our base-case estimate uses Normalized Earnings × Cycle Multiple. We then blend that result with the average analyst price target of $88.80 from 13 analysts, using a 20% weight on analyst consensus. That produces an estimated intrinsic value of $138.38 per share.

Warnings

This company has a built-in lending arm whose debt is mixed in with the main business. We capped the debt adjustment to avoid overstating what the core business owes.
Price-to-book value of 0.5x is below the typical low point. This could be a bargain, but check whether asset write-downs are coming.
Wall Street's average price target is $88.80 (from 13 analysts). Our estimate is 70% above the consensus -- consider that gap carefully.

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
