| Method | Value | vs price | Basis |
|---|---|---|---|
| Discounted cash flow | — | — | perpetuity refused: the 7.52% discount rate sits 0.41pt from the 7.11% the model would compound (floor 2pt) — growth and discounting cancel through the explicit window, so the answer is the terminal block and the house fade, not this company's cash flows. The target rests on the exit multiple alone |
| Exit multiple (P/E) | $68.82 | -29.4% | earnings per share $3.34 valued at 22.89× (the stock's own median P/E) in 5 years, discounted back |
| Sum of the parts | — | — | no sum of the parts: 'North America' matches no business kind in the house table, so it cannot be valued. The rest are not published without it — a sum missing a part reads as a valuation and is simply wrong |
| Price to sales | — | — | not reached: the cash-flow or earnings methods produced an anchor, so this fallback was not run |
| Tangible book | — | — | used only for lenders, where book value is the business |
| Price to FFO (REITs) | — | — | used only for REITs |
Each working is rebuilt by code from the valuation's own figures and checked against the published value.
