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 25.0x Exit PE.
In-depth Analysis How we analyze
Valuation Analysis: LASR is currently trading at $45.61, which is considered extended relative to its 30-day fair value range of $38.50 to $45.08. From a valuation perspective, the stock is trading at a premium (Forward PE: 175.4) compared to its historical average (153.9). At these levels, the market is pricing in 4.4% annual earnings growth. This growth rate appears achievable given the company's track record, suggesting the valuation is rational.
Technical Outlook: Technically, LASR is in a strong uptrend. Immediate support is located at $42.61, while resistance sits at $48.66. Short-term momentum is weak, with the stock down 3.2% recently.
Market Sentiment: LASR has a strong technical setup (75/100), with favorable trendlines, momentum, and price action for short-term traders.
