Why we don't show a single “fair value” for CI
Even the conservative scenario ($618.46) sits far above today's price — trailing cash flows may be cyclically elevated. 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?
$282.52 is justified only if free cash flow grows about -10.8% a year (fading to 2.5% long-run) at a 7.5% required return — slower than the company has actually grown.
| Scenario | FCF growth (fading to 2.5%) | Discount | Value / share |
|---|---|---|---|
| Conservative | 8.1%/yr | 8.5% | $618.46 |
| Base case | 11.1%/yr | 7.5% | $878.85 |
| Optimistic | 14.1%/yr | 6.5% | $1,295.07 |

The FMP figure is a third-party point estimate. Its cash-flow forecast, discount rate, terminal growth, and valuation date are not included in the stored response, so TGMCharts presents it only as a reference—not as an intrinsic-value conclusion or price target.

Edit the assumptions to see how they change the estimated fair value. Opens seeded with TGM's data-driven base case for CI (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.

How the estimated fair value shifts with the discount rate (WACC) and terminal growth, holding your 11.1%/yr FCF growth and 10-year horizon fixed. Green = above today's $282.52; red = below. Your current case is outlined.
