Fair Value models

Bear $25.76 Fair Value $41.16 Bull $53.52
Price $48.75 · Downside -15.6%
Model ⓘEach model values the company its own way (discounted cash flow, earnings, assets, dividends). The fair value above starts from their evidence-weighted blend, not from a single model. In cyclical trough or peak years, after dilution or a stock split it is adjusted afterwards, so it can sit above or below the models. Based on fiscal year 2025 figures (about 10 months old). Earnings retained since then ($0.9173 per share) are deliberately not added. Bear ⓘBear = the cautious scenario: the same model computed with conservative anchors (lower growth, margins and valuation multiples). Together with Bull it frames a plausible valuation range, not a price target.BaseBull ⓘBull = the optimistic scenario: the same model computed with favourable anchors (higher growth, margins and valuation multiples). Together with Bear it frames a plausible valuation range, not a price target. If a model's bull case is above four times its base value, the table shows that limit with a > sign (like the overall Bull above): beyond it no assumption holds. Coverage ⓘCoverage = how well-backed THIS model's estimate is for this stock (0–100): how complete and reliable its input data are, and how well the model fits the company. The final Fair Value is an evidence-weighted blend, so better-evidenced models count more. Green ≥70, amber 50–69, grey below 50.

Revenue & earnings trend

Growth Quality ⓘGrowth is valuable only when reinvestment earns attractive returns (Aswath Damodaran): sustainable growth depends on return on capital, reinvestment and efficiency. Basis: total company revenue over the periods shown on the cards (3Y/5Y/all years), not per share, so a merger can show up as a growth jump; per-share earnings growth is in the value-creation card. 97/100
Revenue growth appears healthy and is supported by profitability and cash-flow quality.
Revenue growth 1 year
+10.7%
Revenue growth 3 years ⓘMeasures the company's TOTAL revenue from reported annual statements: compound average growth per year (CAGR) from the fiscal year 3, 5 or N years back to the most recent comparable fiscal year. Not per share: buybacks do not change this number, and a merger can appear as a growth jump. Per-share growth (which does include buybacks) is in the value-creation card.
+9.5%
Revenue growth 5 years ⓘMeasures the company's TOTAL revenue from reported annual statements: compound average growth per year (CAGR) from the fiscal year 3, 5 or N years back to the most recent comparable fiscal year. Not per share: buybacks do not change this number, and a merger can appear as a growth jump. Per-share growth (which does include buybacks) is in the value-creation card.
+12.5%
Start year 2020 (pandemic). Over 10 years: +11.8% a year
Revenue growth 36 years ⓘMeasures the company's TOTAL revenue from reported annual statements: compound average growth per year (CAGR) from the fiscal year 3, 5 or N years back to the most recent comparable fiscal year. Not per share: buybacks do not change this number, and a merger can appear as a growth jump. Per-share growth (which does include buybacks) is in the value-creation card.
+37.0%
What shareholders gained per year (last 5 years) ⓘWhat the business itself delivers per year: earnings growth per share plus the dividend yield. This is what you get IF the market keeps valuing the stock the same way: it contains no assumption about the market changing its mind. Computed per share, so buybacks count and a merger does not pass as growth. For a company that pays no dividend it is pure earnings growth per share. Period: earnings growth per share as CAGR over the last 5 reported fiscal years (annual statements), plus the current dividend yield. The start value is the median of the three years around the start, so a single crisis year (a pandemic or a write-down) does not distort the rate. Basis: adjusted.
+11.0%
Earnings growth per share plus dividend.
Earnings per share, growth per year+11.0%
Dividend (yield on the price)0.0%
Pace: 5 vs 10 years ⓘTwo data points, not a trend model: earnings growth per share over the last 5 fiscal years against the last 10. Labelled "steady" when both rates are within 3 percentage points of each other, otherwise picking up or flattening. Shown only when ten years of history exist.8.5% vs 15.1%, slowing
Profit margin 2020 to 2025 ⓘOperating margin then vs now, from reported annual statements. A falling margin after a boom year is the classic peak-earnings signal: the growth rate then leans on an inflated base.36% → 29%
Pace: the 5-year rate starts in 2020 (pandemic)

Growth Forecast

A lot of optimism in the price
The price assumes more growth than the company has delivered so far and more than analysts expect.
What the price assumes ⓘThis turns our valuation around: instead of asking what the share is worth, it asks what growth the current price requires. It uses the cash the company keeps after all spending (free cash flow), the same discount rate as our models, five years of growth, then slowing evenly to 2 % a year by year ten. Compared with the analysts' sales forecasts extended to the same five years (at least three analysts, for context only, it does not enter the Fair Value): within 3 percentage points counts as "in line" (amber), below that little optimism (green), above that a lot of optimism (red).
+20.8%
Yearly growth needed for the next five years to justify today's price.
What forecasts expect ⓘAnalysts publish sales forecasts for the next two fiscal years. For the years after that, growth slows evenly to 2 % a year by year ten (2 % is the long-run rate our models use). Projected years are marked as such.
+9.9%
Yearly sales growth analysts expect, extended to five years.
After inflation (USA: IMF forecast 2.4% a year to 2030, 3.1% from 2016 to 2025) that is about +18.0% a year for the price and +7.4% for the forecasts.
Forecast 2026 (sales)+17.4%
Forecast 2027 (sales)+9.6%
Projected 2028 (sales)+8.6%
Projected 2029 (sales)+7.7%
Projected 2030 (sales)+6.8%

Recent news

News mood ⓘNews mood, the average tone of recent news (100 articles), rated against how stocks are usually covered. 🚀 Hype = unusually upbeat · 🙂 Positive = above average · 😐 Neutral = typical · 🙁 Negative = below average · 😨 Very negative = unusually downbeat. It reflects the tone of coverage, not our valuation. Hype
Recent news coverage is unusually upbeat, far more positive than stocks are typically covered.
Note from the team Oct 28, 2026
AI conclusion: Moderate moat potential from pricing power and margins stands as the main strength, while thin public data on human capital, innovation and insider activity limits any durability assessment.
Main risk: Deterioration in the relationship with The Coca-Cola Company or its bottlers could disrupt distribution and reduce sales since two bottlers account for about 25 percent of net sales and future performance depends substantially on this relationship.
Bull case: Monster could deepen integration with Coca-Cola bottlers to expand international reach while using its scale to match wellness trends through zero-sugar and functional line extensions.
Bear case: If the Coca-Cola relationship weakens or rivals and regulators gain ground, distribution could fragment and core US convenience-store volumes could decline materially over several years.
Monster Beverage keeps posting strong sales growth in energy drinks while leaning on its Coca-Cola distribution network for international expansion. Yet an Indian court had to step in recently to pause a regulator's attempt to ban the 'energy drink' label on its cans, highlighting ongoing regulatory friction in emerging markets. Does this relief clear the path for smoother global rollout, or will similar hurdles keep testing execution elsewhere?

Over the last 5 years revenue grew +12.5 % per year. As of Nov 5, 2026.
What discount rate (WACC) does the fair value of MNST use?
Our models discount Monster Beverage Corp at 8.1 %: a base by market capitalisation (large), damped by beta 0.49, country premium for USA. The same rate applies in all 26 models.
What is a reverse DCF?
A reverse DCF turns the usual calculation around. Instead of deriving a value from assumptions, it takes today's price as given and asks: what free-cash-flow growth would a company have to deliver for exactly this price to be fair? The result is not a forecast but the expectation already priced in. For Monster Beverage Corp that is +20.8 % per year a year over ten years, using the same discount rate (8.1 %) and the same formula as our fair value.
How much growth has Monster Beverage Corp (MNST) delivered so far?
Over the past 5 years revenue at Monster Beverage Corp grew +12.5 % a year. The price currently implies +20.8 % per year free-cash-flow growth a year. Comparing the two shows how much confidence is in the price: if it demands more than has been delivered, the business has to accelerate for the maths to work.
How fast is the sector of Monster Beverage Corp (MNST) growing?
The median revenue growth in the sector is +3.6 % a year. That is the yardstick for the growth priced into Monster Beverage Corp (+20.8 % per year a year): it shows whether the expectation is within the usual range or beyond it.
What is the free cash flow yield of Monster Beverage Corp (MNST)?
The free-cash-flow yield on the price is 2.04 %: that much free cash flow Monster Beverage Corp produces per unit of market value. When it exceeds the discount rate of our models (8.1 %), the business already earns more than its cost of capital demands, and the price needs little additional growth.
What is the intrinsic value of Monster Beverage Corp (MNST)?
Intrinsic value and fair value mean the same thing: what the business is worth on its numbers, independent of the share price. For Monster Beverage Corp it is $41.16 per share (as of Nov 5, 2026), against a price of $48.75. It is the blended result of 24 valuation models (cash flow, earnings, asset, dividend).

As of Nov 5, 2026, MNST trades above its calculated fair value: price $48.75, fair value $41.16, a gap of about −16% (overvalued). The calculation is refreshed with each new quarterly report, so the verdict can change during the year.
Is fair value the same as the market price of MNST?
No. The price is what the market pays today ($48.75); the fair value is what the company's own numbers justify ($41.16). For Monster Beverage Corp the two are $7.59 per share apart. That gap is exactly why we show both numbers side by side.
How much is Monster Beverage Corp worth?

Our models span a range for Monster Beverage Corp: cautious scenario $25.76, base $41.16, optimistic $53.52 per share (as of Nov 5, 2026, price $48.75). The range comes from different growth and margin assumptions, not from analyst opinions.
What is the P/E ratio of MNST?
Monster Beverage Corp trades at a price-to-earnings ratio of 45.1 (as of Nov 5, 2026). A P/E on its own says little: it compares the price with ONE year of profit, while our fair value of $41.16 is built from several models across several years. Other multiples: PEG 2.3, P/B 11.7, P/S 10.5, EV/EBITDA 32.3.
What is the PEG ratio of MNST?
The PEG ratio of Monster Beverage Corp is 2.26 (P/E divided by earnings growth, as of Nov 5, 2026). That is above 1, so the growth is already paid for in the price.
