Warren Buffett's Owners' Earnings:
No positive free cash flow found (TTM or annual) to compute Owners' Earnings per share.
Note: Many fast-growing companies reinvest heavily, so Owners' Earnings may appear low. Consider other factors in your valuation.
Value-Trade has assigned 14 points to above Prospect Capital Corporation (PSEC) stock.
Heads up: One or more P/E inputs look exaggerated and may skew the blend.
• Growth Based PE 50.00 (>2× median)
Further research is recommended; please use your own due diligence.
In such cases, multiplying earnings by the long-run average P/E typically gives a closer, more reliable fair value.
Rule of thumb: Last 3 Years Avg P/E (8.75) × EPS ($0.40) = $3.50.
Last 3 Years Avg PE 8.75, Fair Value PE 12, Industry Based PE 15, Growth Based PE 50, Risk-Free Anchored PE (25% MoS) 18.34. Based on these 5 values, average assigned is 20.82. Value-Trades has assined P/E value 8.75. An average (Current Year EPS + Next Year EPS) earning per share is $0.4.
Note: Final fair value is the lesser of the blended PE-based fair value and the simple average PE × EPS fair value.
Fair value using multiple P/Es (blended): $8.33 (PE 20.82 × EPS $0.40)
Fair value using simple average PE × EPS: $3.50 (PE 8.75 × EPS $0.40)
Lesser of these two: $3.50
So the Final Fair Value is: $3.50

P/E Reference Summary
Using EPS: $0.40
Source P/E Ratio Implied Fair Value
Market (1 Yr Ago)13.79$5.52
3 Yrs Avg-PE8.75$3.50
Value-Trades Assigned8.75$3.50
Note: Only 3 years of reliable P/E data available. Fair value is calculated using blended models to reduce bias.
