We assign a Buy rating based on the significant disconnect between current pricing and the firm's highly resilient, cash-generative fundamental baseline.
Base view
Buy
At $61.29, market expectations imply a 2.14% terminal growth rate—materially lower than our conservative 3.12% forward estimates. This spread provides a distinct, quantifiable margin of safety. Tightly triangulated FCFF ($67) and moat-fade models ($66) confirm the baseline intrinsic value solidly exceeds current trading levels.
