Sensitivity: base case value per share
| 1.5% | 2.0% | 2.5% | 3.0% | 3.5% | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 7.0% | $149.43 | $159.66 | $172.15 | $187.77 | $207.85 |
| 8.0% | $124.44 | $131.07 | $138.91 | $148.31 | $159.80 |
| 9.0% | $106.18 | $110.71 | $115.94 | $122.04 | $129.25 |
| 10.0% | $92.26 | $95.49 | $99.14 | $103.31 | $108.13 |

Where the presets come from
Base: years 1 to 5 grow at Weatherford International plc's revenue growth rate over the last 5 fiscal years (5.9% 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.
