What Growth Is Priced In
Implied revenue growth (10Y)
-5.4%
The annual FCF growth rate today's price requires over a 10-year horizon (discount rate 10%, terminal growth 2.5%).
Buyback tailwind: -31.5% — per-share value needs a total required return of -37.0% once share-count change is priced in.
vs. own 6-year median revenue growth: 13.0%
