Warnings

ℹ Dividend-based valuation: $19.79 (below our primary estimate by 47%). Large gaps may signal the dividend doesn't reflect full earning power.
ℹ Wall Street's average price target is $24.25 (from 41 analysts). Our estimate is 53% above the consensus -- consider that gap carefully.

Key Risks

  • Growth DCF inappropriate — terminal value assumptions dominate
  • EV/EBITDA misleading for regulated businesses where capex is mandated
  • Regulatory risk is a fat tail not visible in normal multiples
