## What the answer rests on

- 1 of 11 valuation methods put META's value above its price and 10 put it below, so the methods mostly agree.
- To justify today's price, META's free cash flow would need to grow about 15.8% a year for ten years (a reverse discounted cash flow). Over the last three years it actually grew 34.3% a year.
- META trades at 21.5 times its last year's earnings, against a median of 13.4 for 15 profitable Internet Platform companies.
- Over the past year the price sat below the model fair value on 7% of trading days. The gap ranged from 13% below to 44% above the model fair value.

## Read this before relying on it

The model fair value is an estimate from published financial statements. It is not a forecast of where the price goes, and it can be wrong. Within 10% either side we call it close to fair value: valuation models are not precise enough to read more into a smaller gap.
