What is AWK's fair price?

Two classic value formulas, with today's numbers. The current price is $130.25.

Graham's fair price: $86.58; 33.53% below the price

√(22.50 × $5.68 × $58.70)

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: $46.53; 64.28% below the price

$2.79 (5-year average) ÷ 6%

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

Graham ignores growth and debt; Bazin assumes past distributions repeat. They are references to compare, not a buy recommendation.
