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 14.3x Exit PE.

In-depth Analysis How we analyze

Valuation Analysis: GEO is currently trading at $32.22, which is considered extended relative to its 30-day fair value range of $27.31 to $31.25. The stock's valuation (Forward PE: 14.0) is in line with its historical norms (14.3). Remarkably, the market is currently pricing in an annual earnings decline of 0.7% over the next few years. This aligns with recent fundamental challenges.

Technical Outlook: Technically, GEO is in a strong downtrend. Immediate support is located at $24.67, while resistance sits at $33.31.

Market Sentiment: GEO scores 15/100 on our bottoming-setup gauge. Note this measures entry quality, not trend direction — a low score can mean the chart is extended after a strong run (don't chase) or still falling without stabilization; better entries typically come after a pullback toward the 20-day average. Wall Street analysts see significant upside, with an average price target of $40.94 (+27.1%). Current signals suggest waiting for a better entry point before initiating new positions.
