What is TDS-PU's fair price?

Two classic value formulas, with today's numbers. The current price is $19.60.

Graham's fair price
$144.20
635.91% above the price

√(22.50 × $8.91 × $103.72)

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
$27.27
39.15% above the price

$1.64 (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.
