INTRINSIC VALUE TODAY

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 24.2x Exit PE.
In-depth Analysis How we analyze
Valuation Analysis: VNOM is currently trading at $42.34, which is considered extended relative to its 30-day fair value range of $36.80 to $40.07. From a valuation perspective, the stock is trading at a premium (Forward PE: 28.7) compared to its historical average (24.2). At these levels, the market is pricing in 5.8% annual earnings growth.
Technical Outlook: Technically, VNOM is in a downtrend. The price is approaching resistance at $43.00. A breakout above this level would be a bullish signal, while rejection here could lead to consolidation.
Market Sentiment: VNOM has a strong technical setup (60/100), with favorable trendlines, momentum, and price action for short-term traders. Wall Street analysts see significant upside, with an average price target of $50.11 (+19.3%). The stock is fairly positioned - fine to hold existing positions or accumulate slowly on dips, but not an urgent buy.
