Frequently asked
What is Huron Consulting Group's (HURN) fair value?+
Intrinsiqq's two-stage discounted cash flow (DCF) model estimates an intrinsic value of about $309.52 per share for HURN. It projects recent free cash flow forward at a growth rate that fades toward a long-run rate, then discounts those cash flows back to today. Applying a 25% margin of safety gives a more conservative fair-value entry around $232.14. The output moves with the growth and discount-rate inputs, so it is best read as a range, not a single number. You can change every assumption with the sliders on this tab.
Is Huron Consulting Group overvalued based on a DCF?+
At $157.86, HURN trades below the base-case intrinsic value of about $309.52, a 96.1% discount to that estimate, so on this model it looks undervalued. A DCF is only one lens: a premium can be justified if the business grows faster or is higher quality than the base case assumes, which is exactly what the sliders let you test.
What growth is priced into Huron Consulting Group?+
The base case grows HURN's free cash flow at about 20.0% a year before fading, against roughly 77.0% historical free-cash-flow growth. If the price implies growth well above what the company has actually delivered, the market is paying for optimism; if below, expectations are modest. Adjust the growth assumption on this tab to see what the current price is really betting on.
What is a good margin of safety for Huron Consulting Group?+
A margin of safety is the discount to intrinsic value you demand before buying, to protect against being wrong on the inputs. Intrinsiqq applies 25% by default, which turns HURN's $309.52 intrinsic estimate into a $232.14 entry. Wider margins suit less predictable businesses; you can set your own on this tab.
