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 13.9x Exit PE.
In-depth Analysis How we analyze
Valuation Analysis: LNG is currently trading at $211.52, which is considered extended relative to its 30-day fair value range of $192.41 to $206.33. The stock's valuation (Forward PE: 14.9) is in line with its historical norms (13.9). At these levels, the market is pricing in 2.2% annual earnings growth. This growth rate appears achievable given the company's track record, suggesting the valuation is rational.
Technical Outlook: Technically, LNG is in a strong downtrend. The price is approaching resistance at $214.04. A breakout above this level would be a bullish signal, while rejection here could lead to consolidation.
Market Sentiment: LNG 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 $266.23 (+25.0%). Combining these factors, the current setup offers a favorable risk/reward ratio for buyers.
