Fundamentals
Valuation and ratings
West Fraser Timber Co. Ltd. trades at CAD93.34, close to the CAD97.92 our discounted cash flow model puts on the business. On this measure the market and the model broadly agree, so the interesting question is which of them is wrong.
Our moat model scores it 23 out of 100, which is little in the way of a moat. A moat is a structural reason competitors cannot take the profits away, and it matters more to a long holding period than any single quarter's numbers do.
