What the math is really telling you. Watch whether cash flow is compounding — that, more than any single year, is what a value read hangs on.

  • Warning:
    Overvalued
    Fair value ~$31 vs $37 — trading 15% above what the math supports.
  • Good:
    Price is in line with its record
    Priced for ~7%/yr, roughly what it has delivered (10.7%/yr).
  • Warning:
    Revenue shrinking
    Down 3.3% last year — cheap may mean broken.
  • Good:
    Cash flow compounding
    Free cash flow up ~10.7%/yr — the engine is growing.
  • Caution:
    Manageable net debt
    Net debt of $5B — about 3.1× annual free cash flow. Normal for a mature company.

Where this number comes from →

How this was built. Every figure is computed from Halliburton Company'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 Halliburton that is about $5B, or $6 per share. Fundamentals are from the FY25 annual report and change only when a new one is filed. Price of $36.80 taken 2026-09-08 (Google Finance, manual entry, 2026-09-08) — it is not live and does not move during the day.
