Base and Bull scenarios

Base55%

Price target

$166.85

-3.3% from spot

The modal expected path where non-discretionary maintenance demand provides a stable baseline, while new pool construction recovers gradually alongside housing turnover. Ongoing share buybacks and steady dividend growth support mid-single-digit EPS expansion through FY2030.

Revenue expands at a 2.86% to 4.50% CAGR through FY2030.
Operating margin normalizes between 11.0% and 11.5% across 455 sales centers.
Terminal P/E multiple holds at 16.0x forward earnings.

Bull20%

Price target

$194.51

+12.7% from spot

Mortgage interest rates decline, releasing pent-up demand for new residential pool construction and major backyard renovations. Accelerated contractor adoption of premium variable-speed equipment and private-label water treatment expands branch gross margins, driving robust EPS expansion by FY2030.

Revenue growth accelerates to 4.5%-5.5% annually as mortgage rates ease and Sunbelt home turnover rebounds.
Operating margin expands toward 12.0% on branch fixed-cost operating leverage.
Terminal valuation multiple expands to 19.0x forward earnings.
