Plain-Language Summary

Our base-case estimate uses a valuation based on adjusted earnings per share and a normalized price-to-earnings multiple. We then blend that result with the average analyst price target of $50.67 from 8 analysts, using a 20% weight on analyst consensus. That produces an estimated intrinsic value of $40.25 per share.

Warnings

ℹ Dividend-based valuation: $17.03 (below our primary estimate by 55%). Large gaps may signal the dividend doesn't reflect full earning power.

ℹ Wall Street's average price target is $50.67 (from 8 analysts). Our estimate is 26% below 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
