INTRINSIC VALUE TODAY
$52.11
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 18.8x Exit PE.
In-depth Analysis How we analyze
Valuation Analysis: UL is currently trading at $64.96, which is considered extended relative to its 30-day fair value range of $61.51 to $64.83. The stock's valuation (Forward PE: 19.1) is in line with its historical norms (18.8). At these levels, the market is pricing in 0.6% annual earnings growth.
Technical Outlook: Technically, UL is in a strong uptrend. The price is approaching resistance at $65.63. A breakout above this level would be a bullish signal, while rejection here could lead to consolidation.
Market Sentiment: UL scores 25/100 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 $74.52 (+14.7%). Current signals suggest waiting for a better entry point before initiating new positions.
