Expensive and softening.
Trading above fair value while the fundamentals weaken — little to like right now.
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
- Warning:OvervaluedFair value ~$87 vs $187 — trading 54% above what the math supports.
- Warning:Price assumes a big accelerationYou'd need ~15%/yr free-cash-flow growth to justify today's price; it has done 1.4%/yr lately.
- Warning:Revenue shrinkingDown 5.5% last year — cheap may mean broken.
- Good:Cash flow compoundingFree cash flow up ~1.4%/yr — the engine is growing.
- Good:Fortress balance sheetNet cash positive (+$0B) — little solvency risk.
How this was built. Every figure is computed from Old Dominion Freight Line, 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 $187.01 taken 2026-09-08 (Google Finance, manual entry, 2026-09-08) — it is not live and does not move during the day.
