The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Earnings are due to be reported next week, here are some thoughts.

Forecasted EPS Range is $1.64 to $1.98 per share with the average at $1.84. For what its worth I am using $1.91 as my estimate. Revenue $85B to $87B, my estimate is $85.13B, based on 11% growth.

Using my numbers and a stock price of $165 we would get the following (TTM)

Revenue: $336B ~ 6.2x multiple
EPS : $7.40 / share ~ 24x multiple

BTW: I have $163 as my "fair value" estimate, so we are pretty much on target for that. Looking ahead a bit we might see $9.25 per share in earnings and TTM Revenue around $365B. Apply your favorite multiples (6x and 25x are typical) to get a stock forecast ($180-$220 - I tend to use the midpoint - $200).
