Frequently Asked Questions

Is PG stock undervalued or overvalued?
🔴 OVERVALUED

PG trades at $144.24 vs. our DCF-derived intrinsic value of $101.53, implying -27% downside. Using a 9.5% WACC and 8.0% FCF growth assumption, the current price requires growth rates above our estimates to be justified. Even our bull case ($146.22) suggests limited upside.

What is PG's intrinsic value?

Using a 5-year DCF model: Base FCF of $14.04B, projected at 8.0% 5Y CAGR (best of revenue, EPS, or FCF growth), discounted at 9.5% WACC, with 3.0% terminal growth. Terminal value calculated via Gordon Growth Model: TV = FCF₅ × (1+g) / (WACC−g). After deducting $25.91B net debt and dividing by 2.45B shares: Bear $69.23 | Base $101.53 | Bull $146.22. Current price $144.24 implies -27% to base case.

How is PG'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=9.5%.

④ Sum PV of explicit period + PV of terminal value = Enterprise Value ($275.10B).

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: 19.6x.
