Peter Lynch's formula is:
PayPal Fair Value
= Earnings Growth Rate x TTM EPS
PayPal Fair Value
= 24.64 x 4.34
PayPal Fair Value
= 106.96
The earnings growth rate we use in the formula is the average growth rate of net income/earnings over the last 5 years. If the average growth rate is smaller than 5%, we set it to 5%. If it is larger than 25%, we set it to 25%. If the TTM EPS is negative, Peter Lynch Fair Value's result can be unreliable.
