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 20.5x Exit PE.

In-depth Analysis How we analyze

Valuation Analysis: MGEE is currently trading at $79.04, which is considered fair relative to its 30-day fair value range of $78.21 to $79.62. The stock's valuation (Forward PE: 20.3) is in line with its historical norms (20.5). Remarkably, the market is currently pricing in an annual earnings decline of 0.4% over the next few years. This pessimistic expectation contrasts with the company's recent 7.8% earnings growth, suggesting potential undervaluation if the company simply maintains stability.

Technical Outlook: Technically, MGEE is in a strong downtrend. The price is currently testing key support at $78.09. A bounce from this level would confirm strength, while a break below could signal further downside.

Market Sentiment: MGEE has a strong technical setup (60/100), with favorable trendlines, momentum, and price action for short-term traders. Combining these factors, the current setup offers a favorable risk/reward ratio for buyers.
