Step six

Break my thesis

The thesis under test is: modeled enterprise value is at least the target enterprise value, with every input and source version frozen as they are now. Each test below moves one thing in the direction that hurts and reports the nearest crossing.

Modeled enterprise value

Single-variable thresholds

This thesis already fails. This thesis already fails at the stated assumptions. The existing shortfall is shown before any stress test is applied.

Modeled $1,997.0m against a target of $2,243.2m, a shortfall of $246.2m. Close that before stress testing anything.

Two-variable stress

Every cell is an explicit combination inside the declared range. There is no probability, no confidence interval and no simulation here, because none has been specified.

Growth against year-five margin

Each cell shows the value gap in millions. “fails” means the modeled value falls below the target; “unsupported” means the model rejects that combination.

Terminal-value sensitivity

Jump from year five

Shown, not smoothed

The WACC against terminal growth table above is the terminal-value stress test. Combinations where WACC is at or below terminal growth are reported as unsupported rather than shown as a very large number.

Which assumptions move the answer most

Measured as the enterprise-value swing across the disclosed perturbation range below. This is a sensitivity ranking over ranges chosen here; it is not a causal importance measure.

AssumptionRange testedEnterprise value swing
Year-five operating margin14.0% to 20.0%$656.4m
WACC7.5% to 9.5%$643.8m
Constant annual revenue growth2.0% to 8.0%$488.3m
Terminal growth1.0% to 3.0%$195.1m
Capex as a share of revenue2.6% to 6.6%$192.3m

The most consequential uncertain assumption here is year-five operating margin. The evidence that would most improve this analysis is whatever pins that down: a disclosed operating metric, a segment breakdown, or a stated capital plan. Nothing in this app can supply it for you.
