$AMZN

Baird lifted their price target from $210 to $213 on Amazon after revisiting the margin outlook for the e-commerce and cloud giant.

They believe that AWS margins may contract later this year and into 2025.

“Our view is that AWS segment margins will return to roughly 30% (or even below) as a result of higher levels of operating expenses to support new data centers and infrastructure, increasing mix of lower-margin GenAI workloads, and presumably a resumption of net headcount additions,” analysts said in a note.

“We don't believe GenAI workloads are generally incremental to revenues as yet, and are modeling mid-to-high teens percent AWS revenue CAGR from 2024-2027,” they added.

Baird also anticipates that North American Retail margins, excluding advertising, will return to low single-digit percentage levels over the next two years, with International Retail achieving sustained profitability within the next 2-3 years.

Advertising, on the other hand, is projected to remain a strong margin tailwind. Based on these revised assumptions, the analysts are increasing their consolidated operating margin and earnings estimates for 2025 and 2026 above consensus, without altering revenue projections.

“I am certainly not going to predict what general business or the stock market are going to do in the next year or two since I don't have the faintest idea.

I think you can be quite sure that over the next ten years there are going to be a few years when the general market is plus 20% or 25%, a few when it is minus on the same order, and a majority when it is in between.

I haven't any notion as to the sequence in which these will occur, nor do I think it is of any great importance for the long-term investor.”

•10-Year Mean: 33.16x

•NTM FCF Yield: 3.36%
•10-Year Mean: 3.05%

***NOW TO VALUATION 🧠

As stated above, investors can expect to receive ~24% MORE in EPS & ~10% MORE in FCF per share

Using Benjamin Graham’s 2G rule of thumb, $MNST has to grow earnings at a 13.36% 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 more than the (13.36%) required growth rate:

2024E: $1.78 (15.8% YoY) *FY Dec
2025E: $2.04 (14.4% YoY)
2026E: $2.31 (13.3% YoY)

$MNST has a great track record of meeting analyst estimates ~2 years out, so let’s assume $MNST ends 2026 with $2.31 in EPS & see its CAGR potential assuming different multiples

32x P/E: $73.92💵 … ~17.8% CAGR

30x P/E: $69.30💵 … ~14.8% CAGR

29x P/E: $66.99💵 … ~13.3% CAGR

28x P/E: $64.68💵 … ~11.7% CAGR

As you can see, $MNST appears to have attractive return potential EVEN if we assume 28x earnings, a multiple substantially below its 5-year mean (32.24x) & 10-year mean (33.16x)

Today at $49💵 $MNST appears to be an attractive consideration for investment
