How this is calculated: We use a Growth Decay Model: starting with analyst consensus growth (adjusted above) and gradually slowing it down to a long-term terminal rate (4%) by Year 5. This provides a more realistic valuation than assuming constant hyper-growth. We then apply a 20.6x Exit PE.
In-depth Analysis How we analyze
Valuation Analysis: KN is currently trading at $34.96, which is considered oversold relative to its 30-day fair value range of $34.96 to $38.94. The stock's valuation (Forward PE: 21.6) is in line with its historical norms (20.6). At these levels, the market is pricing in 1.7% annual earnings growth. This growth rate appears achievable given the company's track record, suggesting the valuation is rational.
Technical Outlook: Technically, KN is in a uptrend. Immediate support is located at $32.16, while resistance sits at $39.70.
Market Sentiment: The stock scores a mixed 53/100 on our bottoming-setup gauge, with only partial signs of a stabilized entry point. Wall Street analysts see significant upside, with an average price target of $43.75 (+25.1%). Current signals suggest waiting for a better entry point before initiating new positions.
