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 9.9x Exit PE.

In-depth Analysis How we analyze

Valuation Analysis: RRC is currently trading at $42.46, which is considered fair relative to its 30-day fair value range of $41.20 to $43.20. The stock's valuation (Forward PE: 9.1) is in line with its historical norms (9.9). Remarkably, the market is currently pricing in an annual earnings decline of 2.8% over the next few years. This pessimistic expectation contrasts with the company's recent 260.7% earnings growth, suggesting potential undervaluation if the company simply maintains stability.

Technical Outlook: Technically, RRC is in a strong downtrend. The price is approaching resistance at $43.40. A breakout above this level would be a bullish signal, while rejection here could lead to consolidation.

Market Sentiment: RRC 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 $47.09 (+10.9%). The stock is fairly positioned - fine to hold existing positions or accumulate slowly on dips, but not an urgent buy.
