Computed WACC: 8.62%
Cost of equity (Re)8.74%(Rf 4.30% + β 0.81 × ERP 5.50%)
Cost of debt (Rd)0.00%(no debt / unavailable → 0%)

Implied Near-term FCF Growth
Historical Revenue Growth9.4%
Historical Earnings Growth86.2%
Base FCF (TTM)-$54.82M
Implied growth is the FCF growth rate (yrs 1–5) that makes the DCF intrinsic value equal the current price. Long-term growth is set to half the implied near-term rate.

4 — Dividend Discount Model (DDM)

Assumptions

Yahoo: —

Results

This company does not pay a dividend. DDM is not applicable — the intrinsic value shown uses D0 = $0 unless you enter a hypothetical dividend above.
DDM Intrinsic Value / share
Current Price$22.81
Upside / Downside
Formula: D0 × (1+g) / (r − g)
