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 17.7x Exit PE.
In-depth Analysis How we analyze
Valuation Analysis: SCI is currently trading at $75.40, which is considered slightly low relative to its 30-day fair value range of $75.22 to $81.42. The stock's valuation (Forward PE: 17.4) is in line with its historical norms (17.7). Remarkably, the market is currently pricing in an annual earnings decline of 0.6% over the next few years. This pessimistic expectation contrasts with the company's recent 24.1% earnings growth, suggesting potential undervaluation if the company simply maintains stability.
Technical Outlook: Technically, SCI is showing sideways momentum. Immediate support is located at $68.89, while resistance sits at $78.43.
Market Sentiment: SCI scores 60/100 on our bottoming-setup gauge — the chart has corrected and is stabilizing (RSI reset, momentum turning up), historically a favorable entry zone. Wall Street analysts see significant upside, with an average price target of $93.33 (+23.8%). Combining these factors, the current setup offers a favorable risk/reward ratio for buyers.
