What matters now

  • A high-quality business (quality 92/100), yet the market already pays well above fair value. Quality at a full price, with little margin of safety.
  • The model range is unusually wide ($175.60 to $600.63). The outcome hinges heavily on assumptions, so read the point estimate with caution.

Scenario range: $175.60 (bear) to $600.63 (bull), the price of $320.56 sits inside it. Bear and bull are the same models on cautious and optimistic assumptions, a range, not a price target.

Fair Value models

Based on fiscal year 2025 figures (about 8 months old). Earnings retained since then ($7.64 per share) are deliberately not added.

Each model values the company its own way; the fair value above is the evidence-weighted blend. Evidence (0 to 100) shows how complete a model's inputs are. How we calculate →

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).

Non-valuation factor families (profitability, growth, cashflow, financial strength, momentum …), each academically grounded. Valuation itself sits in the Fair Value and is deliberately excluded here to avoid double-counting.

All values are scores from 0 to 100 (100 = best against fixed, research-based bands), not percentages. The three market factors (momentum, 52-week proximity, low volatility) are displayed but carry zero weight in the headline number: market sentiment is not a business property.
