Redwood Trust (RWT) intrinsic value and fair value
The calculator grows one of Redwood Trust's per-share figures (earnings, free cash flow, revenue, book value or dividends) for a few years, puts an exit multiple on it, and discounts the result back at the yearly return you want. The answers below use its starting inputs for RWT; this is analysis, not investment advice.
Frequently asked
What is Redwood Trust's (RWT) intrinsic value?+
With Intrinsiqq's starting inputs, Redwood Trust's fair value is about $3.84 a share, based on its FFO per share. That assumes FFO per share of $0.12 grows about 0.0% a year for 5 years, the stock then trades at 15.0 times FFO, and you want a 10.0% yearly return. On its other figures: earnings $3.21, book value $5.96, dividends $7.20. Every input can be changed on the page; the result is a model, not a forecast.
Is Redwood Trust overvalued?+
At $3.13, the price is 18% below that fair value of $3.84, and buying at today's price would return about 11.5% a year if those inputs hold. Whether that is cheap or dear depends on whether you believe the growth and the exit multiple, which is what the calculator lets you test. This is analysis from SEC filings, not investment advice.
What growth does the Redwood Trust valuation assume?+
FFO per share grows about 0.0% a year to start, its own recent growth per share (three years for a company not yet profitable, five otherwise). The exit multiple starts at a default.
What is a good margin of safety for Redwood Trust?+
A margin of safety is the cushion you want below the fair value before buying, in case the inputs are wrong. The calculator uses 25%, which puts the buy-below price at $2.88. Less predictable businesses deserve a wider cushion, or a higher desired return.
