Conservative growth and a higher discount rate — the cautious case (25% weight).
Free DCF / intrinsic-value calculator
What's this business actually worth?
Market Lens runs a discounted-cash-flow model on any stock — bear, base, and bull scenarios with a Gordon-growth terminal value — and shows the estimated fair value against today's price. Free, no sign-up.
A fair-value range, not false precision.
The expected case from current fundamentals (50% weight).
Optimistic growth — the upside if things go well (25% weight).
Each scenario discounts projected cash flows back to today and adds a terminal value. The result is a cash-flow-based fair-value estimate you can hold up against the market price. It is shown as its own panel — the analyzer’s headline intrinsic value and the margin-of-safetyscore use a separate, simpler estimate.
Frequently asked questions
What is a DCF calculator?+
A discounted-cash-flow (DCF) calculator estimates what a business is worth today by projecting its future cash flows and discounting them back to the present. The result is an estimate of intrinsic value you can compare to the current share price.
What are the bear, base, and bull scenarios?+
They are three sets of growth and discount-rate assumptions — conservative, expected, and optimistic — set by the model, so you cannot enter your own inputs. Each projects free cash flow for 10 years (5 years of near-term growth, then a 5-year fade), discounts it at the stock’s CAPM cost of equity (not a full WACC), and the three are weighted 25% / 50% / 25% into one value. Showing all three gives you a range instead of a single false-precision number.
What is a terminal value?+
It represents the value of all cash flows beyond the explicit forecast period. Market Lens uses the Gordon Growth Model, which assumes cash flows grow at a steady modest rate forever.
Is the DCF calculator free?+
Yes — it is part of the free stock analysis, with no account required.
Is a DCF estimate a prediction of the price?+
No. A DCF is an estimate of value under a set of assumptions, not a forecast of where the price will go. Market Lens is educational research, not investment advice.
