πŸ“ Graham Intrinsic Value

Graham Number not available β€” requires positive EPS and book value. This stock may be pre-profit, in a loss period, or a financial company where book value is less meaningful.

About the Graham Number β–Ύ

Benjamin Graham's formula estimates intrinsic value as √(22.5 Γ— EPS Γ— Book Value per Share). A stock trading below its Graham Number has a "margin of safety" β€” one of the core principles of value investing.

🏷️ Plain-English Value Verdict

🟑Potentially Undervalued (P/E-based)

P/E of 7.4x is well below the S&P 500 average (~22x). Low P/E can signal undervaluation β€” but also declining growth. Review the business fundamentals.

πŸ“Š Key Metrics

P/E Ratio
7.4x
Forward: 6.4x
What does this mean? β–Ύ

Price-to-Earnings: how much investors pay per dollar of earnings. Lower generally = cheaper. S&P 500 average is ~22x. Below 15x is often considered undervalued; above 30x requires strong growth to justify.

P/B Ratio
-22.97x
What does this mean? β–Ύ

Price-to-Book: compares stock price to net asset value. Below 1.0 means you're buying assets for less than their accounting value β€” a classic Graham signal. Above 3–4x suggests the market expects significant intangible value.

Dividend Yield
6.17%
$1.17/share/yr
What does this mean? β–Ύ

Annual dividend payments as a % of stock price. A 4% yield means $4 in annual income per $100 invested. Compare to the 10-yr Treasury yield (~4.5%) as the benchmark for 'worth it' income.

Graham Number
N/A
What does this mean? β–Ύ

Benjamin Graham's formula: √(22.5 Γ— EPS Γ— Book Value). It estimates fair value. If the current price is below this number, the stock has a 'margin of safety' β€” one of the cornerstones of value investing.

Margin of Safety
N/A
What does this mean? β–Ύ

How far below intrinsic value the stock is trading. +30% means the stock is 30% cheaper than its calculated fair value β€” a large cushion against being wrong. Negative = trading above intrinsic value.

Market Cap
$17.6B
What does this mean? β–Ύ

Total market value of all shares. Large-cap ($10B+) = stability. Mid-cap ($2–10B) = growth potential. Small-cap (<$2B) = higher risk/reward. Bigger doesn't always mean better.
