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 8.8x Exit PE.
In-depth Analysis How we analyze
Valuation Analysis: CPS is currently trading at $28.03, which is considered slightly low relative to its 30-day fair value range of $27.62 to $29.84. From a valuation perspective, the stock is trading at a discount (Forward PE: 6.2) compared to its historical average (8.8). Remarkably, the market is currently pricing in an annual earnings decline of 10.7% over the next few years. This aligns with recent fundamental challenges.
Technical Outlook: Technically, CPS is in a downtrend. Immediate support is located at $26.90, while resistance sits at $31.02.
Market Sentiment: The stock scores a mixed 40/100 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 $44.33 (+58.2%). Current signals suggest waiting for a better entry point before initiating new positions.
