Motorola Solutions, Inc. (MSI) DCF Valuation

Price is ABOVE the estimated range

$158.32

$326.28

Model scenario range

$474.13

Today's price

TGM's two-stage DCF values Motorola Solutions, Inc. (MSI) between $158.32 and $326.28 depending on assumptions, with a base case of $225.51. 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 (8.5%) reflects its beta.

What would today's price require?

Growth the price assumes+26.1%/yr

Actual FCF growth, last 5 years+10.5%/yr

$474.13 is justified only if free cash flow grows about +26.1% a year (fading to 2.5% long-run) at a 8.5% required return — faster than the company has actually grown.

Scenario	FCF growth (fading to 2.5%)	Discount	Value / share
Conservative	6.8%/yr	9.5%	$158.32
Base case	9.8%/yr	8.5%	$225.51
Optimistic	12.8%/yr	7.5%	$326.28

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.
