Frequently Asked Questions

Is JXN stock undervalued or overvalued?
🟢 UNDERVALUED

JXN trades at $114.84 vs. our DCF-derived intrinsic value of $222.62, implying +96% upside. At a 10.0% WACC and 8.0% projected FCF growth, the market appears to be underpricing the present value of JXN's future cash flows. The bear case ($159.00) still suggests upside, providing margin of safety.

What is JXN's intrinsic value?

Using a 5-year DCF model: Base FCF of $946M, projected at 8.0% 5Y CAGR (best of revenue, EPS, or FCF growth), discounted at 10.0% WACC, with 3.0% terminal growth. Terminal value calculated via Gordon Growth Model: TV = FCF₅ × (1+g) / (WACC−g). After deducting $610M net debt and dividing by 0.07B shares: Bear $159.00 | Base $222.62 | Bull $307.68. Current price $114.84 implies +96% to base case.

How is JXN's fair value calculated?

DCF Methodology:

① Project FCF years 1-5 using 8.0% growth derived from 5-year historical CAGR (best of revenue, EPS, or FCF growth, with 8% floor and 25% cap).

② Calculate terminal value at year 5 using perpetuity growth model with g=3.0%.

③ Discount all cash flows to PV using WACC=10.0%.

④ Sum PV of explicit period + PV of terminal value = Enterprise Value ($17.18B).

⑤ Subtract net debt, divide by shares outstanding.

Sensitivity analysis available above—adjust WACC ±2% or growth ±3% to stress-test the valuation. Implied EV/FCF multiple: 18.2x.
