INTRINSIC VALUE TODAY
$8.86
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 18.5x Exit PE.
In-depth Analysis How we analyze
Valuation Analysis: HLN is currently trading at $10.47, which is considered extended relative to its 30-day fair value range of $9.92 to $10.32. The stock's valuation (Forward PE: 18.8) is in line with its historical norms (18.5). At these levels, the market is pricing in 0.4% annual earnings growth. This growth rate appears achievable given the company's track record, suggesting the valuation is rational.
Technical Outlook: Technically, HLN is in a strong downtrend. The price is approaching resistance at $10.57. A breakout above this level would be a bullish signal, while rejection here could lead to consolidation.
Market Sentiment: HLN has a strong technical setup (75/100), with favorable trendlines, momentum, and price action for short-term traders. Wall Street analysts see significant upside, with an average price target of $11.82 (+14.8%). Combining these factors, the current setup offers a favorable risk/reward ratio for buyers.
