How it works

Three steps, and you can check all three.

No analyst forecasts, no black box, no AI — just arithmetic anyone could check with a calculator and the filings open. Here it is on Apple, run exactly as it runs on the other 135.

  1. Read the filing

    Straight from Apple's accounts, one number: the cash left over after the business has paid for its own upkeep and growth. In FY25: $99B.

  2. Do the arithmetic

    Carry that number forward 10 years on one published growth assumption — the same for every company, never tuned to flatter a name — and count each future year for less than the one before it, 9% a year less, because money later is worth less than money now. Add net cash, divide by the shares on file. It comes out at $127 a share.

  3. Read the answer

    Put that beside the price — $320, taken 2026-09-04 — and say which is bigger, in a sentence rather than a score. Nothing here tells you what to do with the answer.

A wonderful business — priced for growth it hasn't delivered.

Fresh, not live. Filings are checked every night and prices are refreshed weekly — every read states the date of the price it used. A business is worth what it is worth whether or not its ticker is moving. How fresh is this? →
