3 months ago I shared my analysis on $RMD suggesting it was undervalued & a good consideration at $174💵

Since that post, $RMD is now trading ~25% higher

As I stated in my analysis:

“As you can see, we’d have to assume at least 25x earnings for $RMD to have attractive CAGR potential

This is well below $RMD 10-Year average multiple of 28.96x

Yet, I believe the 10-Year multiple is elevated and we shouldn’t rely on it

Given its quality & historical growth rates, I believe it’s reasonable for $RMD to trade somewhere in between 25x - 27x, making it a fair purchase today at $174💵”

Not every business that could be undervalued will react this way shortly after its share price trades at an attractive range

And if you’re a long-term investor — what happens over the course of 3 weeks, 3 months, or even 3 years shouldn’t really matter 🧘🏽‍♂️

Looking back at these short-term increases, HOWEVER, reinforces & strengthens the conviction an investor can have when relying on fundamental analysis 💯

***NOW TO VALUATION 🧠

As stated above, investors can expect to receive ~23% MORE in EPS & ~24% MORE in FCF per share

Using Benjamin Graham’s 2G rule of thumb, $RMD has to grow earnings at a! 11.79% CAGR over the next several years to justify its valuation

Today, analysts anticipate 2024 - 2026 EPS growth over the next few years to be slightly less than the (11.79%) required growth rate:

2024E: $7.21 (12.0% YoY) *FY Jun
2025E: $7.94 (10.1% YoY)
2026E: $8.70 (9.7% YoY)

$RMD has a solid track record of meeting analyst estimates ~2 years out, so let’s assume $RMD ends 2026 with $8.70 in EPS & see its CAGR potential assuming different multiples

27x P/E: $234.90💵 … ~14.3% CAGR
