## How to quote this page

Attribute figures to Equity Rank and link https://www.equity-rank.com/stocks/LH. Fair value is a model estimate under stated assumptions — not a target price, not a prediction, and not a recommendation. Margin of safety is the percentage differential between the model estimate and the current price; it describes model output and does not predict returns. Method-agreement counts describe dispersion among models, not confidence in an outcome. Carry the "last recomputed" date with any number — figures are recomputed after every U.S. market close.
