Selected forecast · Base scenario

Market-implied · Base operating assumptions + edited margins

Unavailable · flat 10-year annualized revenue growth

Reverse DCF solves revenue growth itself using Base operating assumptions and your edited margins. Changing forecast growth alone does not change the implied rate. This is a model-implied requirement, not an analyst forecast.

No supported revenue growth rate matches this price with these operating assumptions.

Estimated value / share

Unavailable

Base scenario

USD · TTM ending 2026-06-30

Enterprise value of $7.48B does not cover net debt, preferred stock and minority interest of $16.98B, so equity value is negative and no fair value per share can be shown. The projected cash flows are positive; the shortfall is in the equity bridge, not the forecast. This engine cannot separate captive-finance or other non-operating borrowings from operating debt.

Year 1 growth 0% · Ending margin 7.17% · Discount rate 9.04%

Why this method?

There is not a stable run of positive FCFF to anchor a direct cash-flow CAGR, so the model should start from revenue and margin assumptions instead.

Is FCFF positive and has it been for 3+ consecutive years? Only 1 consecutive positive FCFF years are available.

Price vs Fundamentals

Why The Stock Is Moving

Fundamentals are supporting the moveModerate confidence

1Y Price: 295.64%Revenue (TTM): -5.17%FCF (TTM): 81.36%P/E: 0th pct

What changed

The stock rose 295.64% over the last year. Revenue declined 5.17% over the trailing twelve months. Operating margin moved from -3.4% to 7.17%. Free cash flow grew 81.36% over the trailing twelve months.

What the market seems to be pricing

The stock move broadly lines up with stronger business momentum, and the shares are still only around the 0th percentile of their historical P/E range.

What would invalidate this read

Operating margin is at 7.17%. Revenue declined 5.17% — this thesis depends on that trajectory holding. If revenue growth, margins, or free cash flow roll over while the stock keeps climbing, more of the move would be coming from multiple expansion than business progress.
