We publish no single base value for Procter & Gamble. Our valuation methods put it between $127.17 and $143.06 a share. The valuation code's reason: no point fair value: the two anchors behind it compound the same growth rate and differ only in how they end — a perpetuity at the terminal rate against a multiple on the final year — so the midpoint between them measures terminal treatment rather than what the business is worth. The published range is the same reading with the false precision removed: read it as the span the method supports, and treat neither edge as a point estimate.
| Method | Value | vs price | Basis |
|---|---|---|---|
| Discounted cash flow | $143.06 | -14.9% | free cash flow $15.34bn, growth 3.52% for 5 years, then fading to 3% over 5 more, discounted at 7.74%; stress floor $90.48 |
| Exit multiple (P/E) | $127.17 | -24.3% | earnings per share $6.97 valued at 22.55× (the stock's own median P/E) in 5 years, discounted back |
| Sum of the parts | — | — | no sum of the parts: 'Fabric & Home Care' 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.
The discount rate:
| Risk-free rate | 5.13% (10-year US Treasury yield) |
| Company's own beta | 0.36 (5 years of monthly returns against the S&P 500; standard error 0.15) |
| Peer beta | 0.38 (median of 31 S&P 500 Consumer Staples companies) |
| Blend of own and peers | 0.37 (75% own, 25% peers, weighted by how precisely the company's own beta is measured) |
| Adjusted beta | 0.58 (0.67 × 0.37 + 0.33, pulled toward the market's 1.0) |
| Equity risk premium | 4.5% |
| Discount rate = risk-free + adjusted beta × premium | 7.74% |
Free cash flow grows 3.52% a year for 5 years, then fades in equal steps toward 3% over 5 more; each year is discounted by 1 ÷ (1 + rate)^year:

One-year price simulation: a 10% chance the price is below $136.47 and a 10% chance it is above $230.88 in a year; a 61% chance it is higher than today's $168.03, from 20.41% volatility. The simulation assumes the price drifts up at our discount rate of 7.74% a year.
At $168.03 the price implies free cash flow growing 6.1% a year for five years and then fading toward 3% over five more; its revenue has grown 3.5%.
