Greyed cells are more than three times, or under a third of, the middle value. They show how sensitive the model is. Treat them as bounds.
Green: at least 25% above the price. Amber: above it. Red: below it. n/a means the discount rate is at or below growth, where the model has no finite answer. The corners combine the most extreme assumptions, so treat them as bounds.
Discount rate: 10-year Treasury (5.2%) plus a 3% equity hurdle. Price $25.34 on 20 Oct 2026. End-of-day prices from free public sources, may be delayed or missing.
