TGM's two-stage DCF values HP Inc. (HPQ) between $30.69 and $52.00 depending on assumptions, with a base case of $38.26. Growth is taken from the company's own record (blend of 5-year revenue and FCF growth (floored at 2%)), fading to 2.5% long-run; the discount rate (10%) reflects its beta.
What would today's price require?
$31.17 is justified only if free cash flow grows about -2.2% a year (fading to 2.5% long-run) at a 10% required return — faster than the company has actually grown.
