Base-case summary
Our base-case DCF for Intelligent Protection Management Corp. (IPM) projects 10 years of free cash flow growth at 2.0% for years 1–5 and 1.0% for years 6–10, anchored to a default 8% growth assumption, then applies a 2.5% perpetual growth rate and a 8.0% discount rate. Starting from the 3-year average of positive free cash flow ($1M) — TTM FCF was negative, this produces an intrinsic value of $2.02 per share. A 25% safety margin gives a fair value of $1.51, suggesting the stock is currently 24% overvalued against the $1.99 market price.

TTM FCF is negative ($0). Projecting from a negative base produces nonsensical results, so this model uses the 3-year average of positive FCF ($1M) as the base instead. Treat this valuation as a rough estimate — it assumes a return to historical profitability.
