TGM's two-stage DCF values Universal Health Services, Inc. (UHS) between $80.45 and $196.54 depending on assumptions, with a base case of $128.14. Growth is taken from the company's own record (5-year revenue CAGR (FCF growth too volatile to use)), fading to 2.5% long-run; the discount rate (9.5%) reflects its beta.
What would today's price require?
$168.72 is justified only if free cash flow grows about +12.6% a year (fading to 2.5% long-run) at a 9.5% required return — faster than the company has actually grown.
| Scenario | FCF growth (fading to 2.5%) | Discount | Value / share |
