reading capital allocation →Signals, not verdicts — read from the filings above. Numbers don’t prove a moat; they show its footprint. You decide.
The 3 estimate methods that apply put fair value between $44.02 and $526.67 a share. They rest on different assumptions, so where they diverge is the story; the Graham Number is a stricter floor, not a target.
