Base-case summary
Our base-case DCF for Federal Realty Investment Trust (FRT) projects 10 years of free cash flow growth at 4.1% for years 1–5 and 2.1% for years 6–10, anchored to 4.1% historical FCF growth, then applies a 2.5% perpetual growth rate and a 8.0% discount rate.

TTM FCF is negative ($0). Projecting from a negative base produces nonsensical results, so this model uses the 3-year average of positive FCF ($404M) as the base instead. Treat this valuation as a rough estimate — it assumes a return to historical profitability.
