Fair Value

Understanding Fair Value

The fair value of a stock provides insights into whether the stock is currently undervalued or overvalued. It is calculated based on profit, revenue, or dividends and offers a comprehensive perspective of the stock’s intrinsic value.

Income-Based Fair Value

This is calculated by multiplying the earnings per share by the average P/E ratio of the selected past years for smoothing. If the fair value is higher than the current market price, it suggests that the stock is undervalued.

Example 2022

Fair Value Profit 2022 = Earnings per Share 2022 / Average P/E Ratio 2019 - 2021 (3 Years Smoothing)

Revenue-Based Fair Value

It is derived by multiplying the revenue per share by the average price-to-sales ratio of the selected past years for smoothing. An undervalued stock is identified if the fair value exceeds the ongoing market price.

Example 2022

Fair Value Revenue 2022 = Revenue per Share 2022 / Average PSR 2019 - 2021 (3 Years Smoothing)

Dividend-Based Fair Value

This value is determined by dividing the dividend per share by the average dividend yield of the selected past years for smoothing. A higher fair value than the market price indicates an undervalued stock.

Example 2022

Fair Value Dividend 2022 = Dividend per Share 2022 * Average Dividend Yield 2019 - 2021 (3 Years Smoothing)
