INTRINSIC VALUE TODAY
$41.53
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 17.0x Exit PE.
In-depth Analysis How we analyze
Valuation Analysis: FE is currently trading at $50.42, which is considered fair relative to its 30-day fair value range of $49.65 to $51.12. The stock's valuation (Forward PE: 17.1) is in line with its historical norms (17.0). At these levels, the market is pricing in 0.3% annual earnings growth. This growth rate appears achievable given the company's track record, suggesting the valuation is rational.
