Почему сценарий может сработать
Bull: Accelerating IPO activity and strong demand for Anti-Financial Crime (Verafin) and index products drive structural growth outperformance and margin expansion.
Что изменит нашу оценку

Nasdaq is a mature quality compounder with highly recurring revenues from listings and data, protected by strong network effects and regulatory barriers. A near-term revenue contraction driven by portfolio reshaping transitions into steady high-single-digit growth.

§11 Управление позициейEN
Размер позиции
Given the -23.7% downside to the $70.15 mid-point fair value and explicit execution risks in the Year 1 revenue transition, the position warrants an underweight or avoid stance until the valuation normalizes.
Риск
Trim existing positions into strength above $90, as reverse DCF implies flawless execution and 9.4% sustained growth is already priced in.

Bull view
Buy
Upside case depends on the report valuation range and named growth catalysts.
Base view
Sell
While Nasdaq boasts a wide moat and highly predictable mature software/data segment revenue, the current $91.98 price is stretched versus base fundamentals. Reverse DCF reveals the market is pricing in flawless execution, ignoring the near-term restructuring drag.
§14 Итоговая рекомендацияEN
