Screens as clearly overvalued. Cantor Equity Partners V, Inc. trades 60% above the USD4.18 our model puts on the business.

How we got here

The estimate is computed from CEPV's reported fundamentals, with a growth assumption that is deliberately capped: small changes to an uncapped growth or terminal assumption can justify any price, and a number that can justify anything means nothing. These are the inputs the model holds for CEPV today; the exact method, and where it goes wrong, is on the methodology page.

Earnings multiple95.0x

The starting point is earnings power: what the business earns per share, and what the market currently pays for each unit of it.

Return on equity3972.4%

Persistent high returns on capital are what a moat looks like in the accounts, and they feed the moat score alongside the valuation.

Beta1.00

A volatility measure against the wider market. A jumpier share earns a larger discount for risk, which lowers the estimate.

Debt to equity0.11

Leverage haircuts the estimate: debt claims cash before shareholders do, and it turns bad years into dangerous ones.

The belief gap: what growth this price asks you to believe

Run our DCF backwards and every price becomes a growth assumption. One axis compares them: today's market price, the entry prices implied by super investors' 13F filings, the mean analyst target, and the growth our own model funds. The gap between the market's marker and the cohort's markers is the growth you are being asked to believe that informed buyers did not need.

Our model5.0%Market28.0%
0% growth33% annual cash-flow growth

Today's price asks you to believe about 28.0% annual cash-flow growth. Our model funds 5.0%.

Entry prices are filing-implied averages (reported position value divided by reported shares for the quarter a position was opened or materially increased), not actual cost bases; 13Fs lag by up to 45 days. How the Belief Gap is computed.
