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 6.3x Exit PE.

In-depth Analysis How we analyze

Valuation Analysis: BUR is currently trading at $9.69, which is considered slightly high relative to its 30-day fair value range of $9.10 to $9.74. The stock's valuation (Forward PE: 6.1) is in line with its historical norms (6.3). Remarkably, the market is currently pricing in an annual earnings decline of 0.9% over the next few years. This pessimistic expectation contrasts with the company's recent 62.5% earnings growth, suggesting potential undervaluation if the company simply maintains stability.

Technical Outlook: Technically, BUR is in a strong downtrend. Immediate support is located at $9.30, while resistance sits at $10.10.

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 $19.12 (+98.0%). Combining these factors, the current setup offers a favorable risk/reward ratio for buyers.
