BMI Price Forecast Based on DCF Valuation

We started the process of determining a valid price forecast for Badger Meter Inc with a discounted cash flow analysis -- the results of which can be found in the table below. To summarize, we found that Badger Meter Inc ranked in the 34th percentile in terms of potential gain offered. We should note, though, that the most conservative analysis suggests this stock will yield negative results -- and thus may be a potential short opportunity. In terms of the factors that were most noteworthy in this DCF analysis for BMI, they are:

• The company's debt burden, as measured by earnings divided by interest payments, is 13,351 -- which is good for besting 99.78% of its peer stocks (US stocks in the Industrials sector with positive cash flow).
• The business' balance sheet suggests that 0% of the company's capital is sourced from debt; this is greater than just 0% of the free cash flow producing stocks we're observing.
