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 12.9x Exit PE.

In-depth Analysis How we analyze

Valuation Analysis: KDP is currently trading at $27.44, which is considered slightly low relative to its 30-day fair value range of $27.32 to $28.06. The stock's valuation (Forward PE: 12.4) is in line with its historical norms (12.9). Remarkably, the market is currently pricing in an annual earnings decline of 1.4% over the next few years. This pessimistic expectation contrasts with the company's recent 8.3% earnings growth, suggesting potential undervaluation if the company simply maintains stability.

Technical Outlook: Technically, KDP is in a uptrend. The price is approaching resistance at $28.12. A breakout above this level would be a bullish signal, while rejection here could lead to consolidation.

Market Sentiment: KDP has a weak technical setup (25/100), with bearish trendlines and momentum suggesting caution for short-term entries. Wall Street analysts see significant upside, with an average price target of $34.43 (+28.4%). The stock is fairly positioned - fine to hold existing positions or accumulate slowly on dips, but not an urgent buy.
