TGM's two-stage DCF values STERIS plc (STE) between $130.57 and $247.01 depending on assumptions, with a base case of $177.44. Growth is taken from the company's own record (blend of 5-year revenue and FCF growth), fading to 2.5% long-run; the discount rate (8.7%) reflects its beta.
What would today's price require?
$208.77 is justified only if free cash flow grows about +18.3% a year (fading to 2.5% long-run) at a 8.7% required return — faster than the company has actually grown.
| Scenario | FCF growth (fading to 2.5%) | Discount | Value / share |

| Conservative | 11.5%/yr | 9.7% | $130.57 |
| Base case | 14.5%/yr | 8.7% | $177.44 |
| Optimistic | 17.5%/yr | 7.7% | $247.01 |
