Why we don't show a single “fair value” for AIRO
A trailing-FCF DCF can't fairly anchor AIRO Group Holdings, Inc. Common Stock right now — free cash flow has been negative in recent years; free cash flow is currently depressed by a heavy investment cycle while revenue keeps growing. For a company in this position, trailing free cash flow understates what the business actually earns for owners, so any “fair value” built on it would be misleadingly low. The honest lens is the question below: what growth does today's price actually require? The model scenarios are listed further down for reference.
What would today's price require?
$6.58 is justified only if free cash flow grows about +13.9% a year (fading to 2.5% long-run) at a 11.5% required return.
| Scenario | FCF growth (fading to 2.5%) | Discount | Value / share |
|---|---|---|---|
| Conservative | 15.0%/yr | 12.5% | $6.29 |
| Base case | 18.0%/yr | 11.5% | $7.32 |
| Optimistic | 20.0%/yr | 10.5% | $8.47 |

Edit the assumptions to see how they change the estimated fair value. Opens seeded with TGM's data-driven base case for AIRO (growth from its own 5-year record, discount from its beta), so the sandbox starts where the scenarios above leave off. Illustrative model — not investment advice.
