INTRINSIC VALUE TODAY
$14.76
Trading above historical range
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 7.3x Exit PE.
In-depth Analysis How we analyze
Valuation Analysis: FRST is currently trading at $15.76, which is considered fair relative to its 30-day fair value range of $15.24 to $16.10. From a valuation perspective, the stock is trading at a premium (Forward PE: 8.3) compared to its historical average (7.3). At these levels, the market is pricing in 4.6% annual earnings growth.
Technical Outlook: Technically, FRST is in a uptrend. The price is approaching resistance at $15.48. A breakout above this level would be a bullish signal, while rejection here could lead to consolidation.
Market Sentiment: The stock shows a mixed technical setup (40/100), with neutral trendline and momentum signals. Wall Street analysts see significant upside, with an average price target of $18.12 (+15.0%). Combining these factors, the current setup offers a favorable risk/reward ratio for buyers.
