How this was built. Every figure is computed from Casey's General Stores, Inc.'s SEC filings — no estimates, no AI. Two-stage DCF: 9% discount rate, 5% free-cash-flow growth for 10 years, 2.5% terminal. Free cash flow is operating cash flow less capital spending. Net cash is cash and marketable securities less borrowings, commercial paper and finance leases; operating leases are disclosed but never counted as debt. We subtract net debt from the value of the business — for Casey's General Stores that is about $2B, or $51 per share. Fundamentals are from the FY26 annual report and change only when a new one is filed. Price of $733.49 taken 2026-09-09 (Google Finance, manual entry, 2026-09-09) — it is not live and does not move during the day.
