Fair value is an estimate of what one share is worth if future cash flows arrive as modeled. It is not a forecast of the share price.
Fair value blends a 10-year DCF and an earnings multiple: the average of the DCF value and an earnings value from next-twelve-months EPS times 15.0, a blend of the Oil & Gas Midstream median (14.1) and the stock's own 10-year median (15.9). How we calculate it →
