HOW TO USE THIS CALCULATOR
WHERE TO FIND FCF
Look up the company annual Free Cash Flow in their financial statements or on financial data sites. Use the trailing twelve months figure.
GROWTH RATE
Use the historical 5-year FCF growth rate as a starting point. Be conservative for large companies — sustained growth above 15% is rare.
DISCOUNT RATE
8-10% for large stable blue-chip companies. 10-12% for mid-caps. 12-15% for unprofitable or high-risk growth stocks.
TERMINAL GROWTH
Should not exceed long-term GDP growth (2-3%). This is the most sensitive input — even 0.5% change can move fair value by 20% or more.

ABOUT DCF ANALYSIS
Understanding Discounted Cash Flow
Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) analysis is the gold standard of fundamental stock valuation. It calculates what a business is worth today based on projections of how much cash it will generate in the future, adjusted for the time value of money.
This calculator projects free cash flow forward using your growth rate assumption, then discounts each year back to present value using your discount rate. It also calculates a terminal value representing all cash flows beyond the projection period, assuming perpetual growth at your terminal rate.
The sum of discounted cash flows and terminal value equals the enterprise value. Dividing by shares outstanding gives you fair value per share. Compare this to the current market price to assess whether a stock is overvalued or undervalued.
Fair Price Index uses DCF analysis as 50% of its blended valuation model for 37,000+ stocks worldwide, combined with relative valuation and analyst consensus for a more robust fair price estimate.
