Sensitivity: base case value per share
| 1.5% | 2.0% | 2.5% | 3.0% | 3.5% | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 7.0% | $58.48 | $62.66 | $67.77 | $74.15 | $82.36 |
| 8.0% | $48.06 | $50.77 | $53.97 | $57.82 | $62.51 |
| 9.0% | $40.40 | $42.26 | $44.39 | $46.89 | $49.83 |
| 10.0% | $34.53 | $35.85 | $37.34 | $39.05 | $41.01 |

Where the presets come from
Base: years 1 to 5 grow at Kimberly Clark Corp's revenue growth rate over the last 5 fiscal years (-3.0% 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.
