INTRINSIC VALUE TODAY
$39.06
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 12.7x Exit PE.
In-depth Analysis How we analyze
Valuation Analysis: CBZ is currently trading at $39.35, which is considered oversold relative to its 30-day fair value range of $45.31 to $54.79. From a valuation perspective, the stock is trading at a discount (Forward PE: 10.0) compared to its historical average (12.7). Remarkably, the market is currently pricing in an annual earnings decline of 7.6% over the next few years. This aligns with recent fundamental challenges.
