RT @turtlebay_io: How Warren Buffett earns 50% on small sums:

Bayuk Cigars

In 1982, Buffett bought 6% of Bayuk for his private account. His $572,907 investment produced a 50% IRR with "virtually no risk."

Follow this guy.

Financial leverage does not interest me.

Decision leverage does.

How can I make a small number of correct decisions that pay off for the longest time?

•1-Year Mean: 32.57x

•NTM FCF Yield: 3.69%
•10-Year Mean: 4.31%

As you can see, $ABNB appears to be trading above fair value

Going forward, investors can expect to receive ~11% LESS in earnings per share & ~17% LESS in FCF per share🧠***

***NOW TO VALUATION 🧠

As stated above, investors can expect to receive ~11% LESS in EPS & ~17% LESS per share

Using Benjamin Graham’s 2G rule of thumb, $ABNB has to grow earnings at an 18.35% CAGR over the next several years to justify its valuation

Today, analysts anticipate 2024 - 2027 EPS growth over the next few years to be less than the (18.35%) required growth rate:

2024E: $4.42
2025E: $5.10 (15.4% YoY)
2026E: $5.98 (17.2% YoY)
2027E: $6.96 (16.3% YoY) *FY Dec

$ABNB has an great track record of meeting analyst estimates ~2 years out, but let’s assume $ABNB ends 2027 with $6.96 in EPS & see its CAGR potential assuming different multiples

37x P/E: $257.52💵 … ~14.2% CAGR

35x P/E: $243.60💵 … ~12.4% CAGR

33x P/E: $229.68💵 … ~10.6% CAGR

31x P/E: $215.76💵 … ~8.7% CAGR

29x P/E: $201.84💵 … ~6.7% CAGR

As you can see, we’d have to assume >33x earnings for $ABNB to have double digit CAGR potential (keep in mind though, these estimates are based on the analyst EPS estimates for 2027 — and the further out we extrapolate, the less accurate the numbers may be — for better or for worse)

I believe $ABNB could reasonably demand a 30x - 32x multiple (given its growth rate, margins, & strong brand), yet current price & estimates don’t leave us with a margin of safety

Today at $160💵 $ABNB appears to be trading slightly above fair value

$ABNB reports earnings tomorrow after the close & may surprise with an upbeat quarter & guide

Yet, I’d still reconsider $ABNB closer to $134💵 or at ~30.75x forward estimates (~16% below today’s price) where I can potentially expect ~12% CAGR assuming a 29x end multiple in 2027
