Base and Bull scenarios

Base55%

Price target

$312.07

-31.4% from spot

The base-case forecast accelerates revenue through FY2027, then fades growth while holding operating profitability steady and carrying the stated reinvestment schedule.

Post-event annual estimates are delivered through FY2027.
Operating profitability stays at the base-case forecast level rather than expanding.

Bull20%

Price target

$437.56

-3.8% from spot

The bull path requires stronger earnings growth than the base case while operating profitability holds and reinvestment follows the stronger path. Falling annual estimates would disconfirm it.

Annual estimates continue rising after FY2027 results confirm demand.
Free cash flow remains positive after the stated reinvestment schedule.

Sensitivity: Ke × terminal growth

The highlighted cell is Fair value when every assumption sits at its base level ($312.07). Each row and column shows what Fair value becomes when one assumption moves.
