TGM's two-stage DCF values Chewy, Inc. (CHWY) between $14.11 and $21.56 depending on assumptions, with a base case of $17.26. 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 (11.1%) reflects its beta.
What would today's price require?
$20.75 is justified only if free cash flow grows about +15.1% a year (fading to 2.5% long-run) at a 11.1% required return — faster than the company has actually grown.
| Scenario | FCF growth (fading to 2.5%) | Discount | Value / share |
|---|---|---|---|
| Conservative | 6.8%/yr | 12.1% | $14.11 |
| Base case | 9.8%/yr | 11.1% | $17.26 |
| Optimistic | 12.8%/yr | 10.1% | $21.56 |
