INTRINSIC VALUE TODAY

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: LEU is currently trading at $278.28, which is considered fair relative to its 30-day fair value range of $264.33 to $317.18. From a valuation perspective, the stock is trading at a premium (Forward PE: 61.3) compared to its historical average (55.4). At these levels, the market is pricing in 3.4% annual earnings growth.
Technical Outlook: Technically, LEU is in a strong uptrend. The price is currently testing key support at $275.00. A bounce from this level would confirm strength, while a break below could signal further downside. Short-term momentum is weak, with the stock down 7.7% recently.
Market Sentiment: The stock shows a mixed technical setup (40/100), with neutral trendline and momentum signals. The stock is fairly positioned - fine to hold existing positions or accumulate slowly on dips, but not an urgent buy.
