Price against fair value
Free cash flow — 10-year history ($B)
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.
The read — lights & verdict
- Good:UndervaluedFair value ~$7372 vs $6221 — a margin of safety of 19%.
- Warning:Price assumes a big accelerationYou'd need ~3%/yr free-cash-flow growth to justify today's price; it has done -16.0%/yr lately.
- Warning:Revenue shrinkingDown 1.9% last year — cheap may mean broken.
- Caution:Cash flow flat-to-downFree cash flow ~-16.0%/yr — big, but not compounding. The crux for a value buyer.
- Good:Fortress balance sheetNet cash positive (+$2B) — little solvency risk.
How this was built. Every figure is computed from NVR, 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. Fundamentals are from the FY25 annual report and change only when a new one is filed. Price of $6220.84 taken 2026-09-08 (Google Finance, manual entry, 2026-09-11) — it is not live and does not move during the day.
