Trading above historical range
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 25.0x Exit PE.
In-depth Analysis How we analyze
Valuation Analysis: VICR is currently trading at $256.47, which is considered slightly high relative to its 30-day fair value range of $163.26 to $252.94. From a valuation perspective, the stock is trading at a discount (Forward PE: 48.8) compared to its historical average (55.5). Remarkably, the market is currently pricing in an annual earnings decline of 4.2% over the next few years. This pessimistic expectation contrasts with the company's recent 701.4% earnings growth, suggesting potential undervaluation if the company simply maintains stability.
Technical Outlook: Technically, VICR is in a strong uptrend. Immediate support is located at $233.50, while resistance sits at $280.98.
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 $282.50 (+10.1%). Combining these factors, the current setup offers a favorable risk/reward ratio for buyers.
