Formula: √(22.5 × max(0,EPS) × max(0,BVPS))

3 — Reverse DCF (Implied Growth)

Assumptions

Computed: 6.73%
Computed WACC: 6.73%
Cost of equity (Re)8.38%(Rf 4.30% + β 0.74 × ERP 5.50%)
Cost of debt (Rd)7.10%(interest expense ÷ avg debt (SEC))

Implied Near-term FCF Growth55.1%
Historical Revenue Growth5.9%
Historical Earnings Growth
Base FCF (TTM)$22.88M
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.
