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 9.6% ±2 points. Bear = 10.5% and 7.6%; bull = 8.5% and 11.6% (both fade to 3%). A model estimate from public filings, not a forecast of where the price will go.

$130.48−34% vs price
Bear$100.55
Base$130.48
Bull$174.21

Price is above even the bull case.

What the price implies To be worth today’s price, ITT’s free cash flow would need to grow about 17% a year for five years; our estimate uses 10%.

Risk vs market

How risk vs market is measured

One year of daily returns (Oct 30 to Oct 30, 252 sessions). Beta = how much ITT 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.

Above market

Swings more than the market, and its own price swings are 2.5× the S&P 500’s.
