Inputs from the filings
Three sets of assumptions
| Case | Growth yrs 1-5 | Discount rate | Value per share | Value vs price |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Bear | 10.0% | 10.0% | -$7.12 | -155% |
| Base | 15.0% | 9.0% | -$6.89 | -153% |
| Bull | 20.0% | 8.0% | -$6.46 | -150% |
Sensitivity: base case value per share
| 1.5% | 2.0% | 2.5% | 3.0% | 3.5% | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 7.0% | -$6.71 | -$6.66 | -$6.59 | -$6.51 | -$6.40 |
| 8.0% | -$6.84 | -$6.81 | -$6.77 | -$6.72 | -$6.65 |
| 9.0% | -$6.94 | -$6.91 | -$6.89 | -$6.85 | -$6.82 |
| 10.0% | -$7.01 | -$6.99 | -$6.97 | -$6.95 | -$6.93 |
| 11.0% | -$7.07 | -$7.06 | -$7.04 | -$7.03 | -$7.01 |
Where the presets come from
Base: years 1 to 5 grow at Dole plc's revenue growth rate over the last 4 fiscal years (20.5% 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.
