What is WAB's fair price?

Two classic value formulas, with today's numbers. The current price is $287.84.

Graham's fair price
$105.94
63.20% below the price

√(22.50 × $7.51 × $66.39)

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
$11.87
95.88% below the price

$0.71 (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.
