Fair value estimate

How the range is computed

Ten-year free-cash-flow DCF. Same 10-year free-cash-flow model as the base: discount rate 9.5% ±1 point and growth 15.0% ±2 points. Bear = 10.5% and 13.0%; bull = 8.5% and 17.0% (both fade to 3%). A model estimate from public filings, not a forecast of where the price will go.

$41.55−80% vs price
Bear$31.89
Base$41.55
Bull$55.66

Price is above even the bull case.

Cyclical / peak cash flow — treat with care

What the price implies To be worth today’s price, BE’s free cash flow would need to grow about 46% a year for five years; our estimate uses 15%.

Risk vs market

How risk vs market is measured

One year of daily returns (Oct 30 to Oct 30, 252 sessions). Beta = how much BE moved for each 1% move in the S&P 500 (SPY); 1.0 moves with the market. Volatility is the yearly standard deviation of daily returns. Past behavior, not a forecast.

High

Swings much more than the market, and its own price swings are 8.6× the S&P 500’s.
