Inputs from the filings
Three sets of assumptions
| Case | Growth yrs 1-5 | Discount rate | Value per share | Value vs price |
|---|---|---|---|---|

| Base | 7.5% | 9.0% | $91.18 | +116% |
| Bull | 12.5% | 8.0% | $155.63 | +268% |
Sensitivity: base case value per share
| 1.5% | 2.0% | 2.5% | 3.0% | 3.5% | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 7.0% | $115.20 | $122.56 | $131.55 | $142.78 | $157.23 |
| 8.0% | $97.26 | $102.03 | $107.67 | $114.43 | $122.70 |
| 9.0% | $84.15 | $87.42 | $91.18 | $95.57 | $100.76 |
| 10.0% | $74.18 | $76.50 | $79.12 | $82.13 | $85.59 |
| 11.0% | $66.34 | $68.04 | $69.94 | $72.07 | $74.50 |
Where the presets come from
Base: years 1 to 5 grow at Buckle Inc's revenue growth rate over the last 5 fiscal years (7.6% a year), held between -5% and 15%. Years 6 to 10 grow halfway between that and the long-run rate of 2.5%. Future cash is discounted at 9% a year.
Bear: 5 points less growth, 2% long-run growth, 10% discount rate. Bull: 5 points more growth (at most 25%), 3% long-run growth, 8% discount rate.
Value per share = (present value of 10 years of free cash flow + present value of everything after + cash - debt) / diluted shares.
This is a model run on assumptions, not a recommendation or a price target. Small changes in the discount rate or growth move the result a lot, as the table above shows. Change them yourself in the calculator.
