Base and Bull scenarios

Base60%

Price target

$90.73

-11.5% from spot

In the base scenario, consolidated revenue expands at a moderate pace from $9,035,000,000 in FY2025 toward consensus FY2027 revenue of $9,620,179,580. Operating margins expand from 13.97% in FY2026 to 15.58% by FY2030, driven by operational productivity and 80/20 portfolio optimization. Applying a 9.36% cost of equity and a 17.0x terminal multiple yields an intrinsic fair value of $90.73.

Consolidated revenue scales from $9,035,000,000 in FY2025 to $9,620,179,580 in FY2027
Operating margins expand from 13.97% in FY2026 to 15.58% by FY2030 through synergy capture and 80/20 efficiency
Terminal forward P/E multiple normalizes at 17.0x, bounded between peers CMI (15.14x) and IR (19.80x)

Bull20%

Price target

$102.86

+0.3% from spot

In the bull scenario, accelerating adoption of AI data center liquid cooling systems and advanced industrial wastewater reuse drives multi-year organic revenue growth above 6%. Concurrently, rapid resolution of customer electric metering installation delays and enhanced 80/20 commercial execution unlock over 150 basis points of operating margin expansion, pushing operating margins toward 16.5%. Free cash flow conversion exceeds 100% of net income, supporting intrinsic valuation at the high end of the committee range ($102.86).

Data center thermal management revenue expands ~200% in FY2026, exiting at >2% of total sales
Operating margins expand by over 150 basis points toward 16.5% via 80/20 commercial growth leverage
