Analysis

Hope premium

Nasdaq, Inc. is priced well ahead of what the underlying numbers justify, a pattern we describe as a hope premium.

On valuation, the picture is fair. The owner-earnings multiple stands at 21.5×; owner earnings: the cash an owner could take out each year. The implied growth embedded in that price is around 7% a year, against analyst forecasts of 13%. The price, in other words, assumes less than the experts do.

Growth is moderate; the safety picture is stretched. The company scores 20/20 on our value-creation score: strong value creator.

Flags to be aware of: A large part of the company's book value is the price paid for past acquisitions. As always: this describes the company's numbers; it is not a recommendation.
