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 12.8x Exit PE.
In-depth Analysis How we analyze
Valuation Analysis: SBCF is currently trading at $33.44, which is considered slightly high relative to its 30-day fair value range of $32.02 to $33.81. The stock's valuation (Forward PE: 13.6) is in line with its historical norms (12.8). At these levels, the market is pricing in 2.0% annual earnings growth. This growth rate appears achievable given the company's track record, suggesting the valuation is rational.
Technical Outlook: Technically, SBCF is in a uptrend. The price is currently testing key support at $32.82. A bounce from this level would confirm strength, while a break below could signal further downside.
Market Sentiment: SBCF has a strong technical setup (75/100), 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.
