INTRINSIC VALUE TODAY
$27.51
Trading above fair value
How this is calculated: We use a Growth Decay Model: starting with analyst consensus growth (adjusted above) and gradually slowing it down to a long-term terminal rate (4%) by Year 5. This provides a more realistic valuation than assuming constant hyper-growth. We then apply a 9.2x Exit PE.
In-depth Analysis How we analyze
Valuation Analysis: ST is currently trading at $35.65, which is considered extended relative to its 30-day fair value range of $33.97 to $35.53. The stock's valuation (Forward PE: 9.8) is in line with its historical norms (9.2). At these levels, the market is pricing in 1.9% annual earnings growth.
Technical Outlook: Technically, ST is in a strong uptrend. The price is approaching resistance at $36.14. A breakout above this level would be a bullish signal, while rejection here could lead to consolidation.
Market Sentiment: The stock shows a mixed technical setup (55/100), with neutral trendline and momentum signals. Wall Street analysts see significant upside, with an average price target of $39.80 (+11.9%). The stock is fairly positioned - fine to hold existing positions or accumulate slowly on dips, but not an urgent buy.
