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 10.2x Exit PE.

In-depth Analysis How we analyze

Valuation Analysis: UMBF is currently trading at $127.14, which is considered extended relative to its 30-day fair value range of $117.89 to $123.64. The stock's valuation (Forward PE: 10.0) is in line with its historical norms (10.2). Remarkably, the market is currently pricing in an annual earnings decline of 0.7% over the next few years. This pessimistic expectation contrasts with the company's recent 12.6% earnings growth, suggesting potential undervaluation if the company simply maintains stability.

Technical Outlook: Technically, UMBF is in a uptrend. The price is approaching resistance at $129.98. A breakout above this level would be a bullish signal, while rejection here could lead to consolidation.

Market Sentiment: UMBF has a strong technical setup (75/100), with favorable trendlines, momentum, and price action for short-term traders. The stock is fairly positioned - fine to hold existing positions or accumulate slowly on dips, but not an urgent buy.
