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 13.5x Exit PE.

In-depth Analysis How we analyze

Valuation Analysis: AROC is currently trading at $29.59, which is considered extended relative to its 30-day fair value range of $25.56 to $27.93. From a valuation perspective, the stock is trading at a premium (Forward PE: 15.2) compared to its historical average (13.5). At these levels, the market is pricing in 4.0% annual earnings growth. This growth rate appears achievable given the company's track record, suggesting the valuation is rational.

Technical Outlook: Technically, AROC is in a uptrend. The price is approaching resistance at $30.15. A breakout above this level would be a bullish signal, while rejection here could lead to consolidation.

Market Sentiment: AROC has a strong technical setup (60/100), with favorable trendlines, momentum, and price action for short-term traders. The stock is fairly positioned - fine to hold existing positions or accumulate slowly on dips, but not an urgent buy.
