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 21.9x Exit PE.

In-depth Analysis How we analyze

Valuation Analysis: GRC is currently trading at $54.49, which is considered extended relative to its 30-day fair value range of $49.23 to $53.12. From a valuation perspective, the stock is trading at a premium (Forward PE: 24.3) compared to its historical average (21.9). At these levels, the market is pricing in 3.5% annual earnings growth.

Technical Outlook: Technically, GRC is in a strong uptrend. The price is approaching resistance at $55.02. A breakout above this level would be a bullish signal, while rejection here could lead to consolidation.

Market Sentiment: GRC has a strong technical setup (75/100), with favorable trendlines, momentum, and price action for short-term traders. In the options market, Implied Volatility is low (3th percentile), suggesting options premiums are relatively cheap. This makes it an attractive time for long options strategies if you have a directional bias. Combining these factors, the current setup offers a favorable risk/reward ratio for buyers.
