What is VLO's fair price?

Two classic value formulas, with today's numbers. The current price is US$406.73.

Graham's fair price
US$221.22
45.61% below the price

√(22.50 × US$25.05 × US$86.83)

Benjamin Graham paid no more than a P/E of 15 and a P/B of 1.5. Their product, 22.5, times earnings (EPS) and book value per share gives the fair price.

Bazin's ceiling price
US$69.07
83.02% below the price

US$4.14 (5-year average) ÷ 6%

Décio Bazin only bought shares yielding at least 6% a year in distributions. The ceiling price is the average dividend per share of recent years divided by 6%.

Graham ignores growth and debt; Bazin assumes past distributions will repeat. They are reference points for comparison, not a buy recommendation.
