Priced in
How much growth the market assumed at the 52-week high, the low and today (a reverse DCF).
52-wk high: P/E 10.7×; 52-wk low: P/E 13.2×; now: P/E 10.2×.
| High | Low | Now | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Price | $87.49Oct 29 | $63.94Nov 20 | $86.26 |
| P/E | 10.7× | 13.2× | 10.2× |
What this means: a lower P/E than at the high means you pay less for each dollar of profit than buyers did then.
How it’s computed
Banks, insurers and lenders: cash flow includes deposits and loans, so a cash-flow model doesn't fit; we show P/E at each point instead. P/E = that day's close × diluted shares / 12-month net income, using only the filings that were public on that day.
Valuation
What we estimate it's worth, and how it ranks on value vs every stock we cover.
Fair value estimate
How the range is computed
Financials model (residual income). Same residual-income model as the base: cost of equity 9.5% ±1 point and return on equity 14.9% ±2 points. Bear = 10.5% and 12.9%; bull = 8.5% and 16.9%. A model estimate from public filings, not a forecast of where the price will go.
Price is below even the bear case.
What the price implies To be worth today’s price, CUBI would need a return on equity of about 11% a year; our estimate uses 15%.
Risk vs market
How risk vs market is measured
One year of daily returns (Oct 31 to Nov 2, 252 sessions). Beta = how much CUBI 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.
Moves a bit less than the market, and its own price swings are 2.3× the S&P 500’s.

Valuation details
DCF $130.90 · MV $85.65
Financials model (residual income): book value $67.02 a share on Jun 30, 2026, plus the earnings above a 9.5% cost of equity. ROE 14.9%, the average of 13.8% for the trailing 12 months to Jun 30, 2026 and 16.0% over fiscal 2021–2025, on average common equity; payout 10% of earnings (dividends 0% + net buybacks 10%), so book grows by the retained rest; the return above 9.5% fades halfway toward 9.5% over 10 years, then grows at 3% (terminal value). From the 10-Q filed Aug 7, 2026.
