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 20.2x Exit PE.
In-depth Analysis How we analyze
Valuation Analysis: EIG is currently trading at $44.52, which is considered slightly high relative to its 30-day fair value range of $43.21 to $44.77. The stock's valuation (Forward PE: 21.2) is in line with its historical norms (20.2). At these levels, the market is pricing in 1.7% annual earnings growth.
Technical Outlook: Technically, EIG is in a uptrend. The price is approaching resistance at $45.83. A breakout above this level would be a bullish signal, while rejection here could lead to consolidation.
