Overpriced

EDUC is Overpriced: at $1.30 it trades 70% above its fair value of $0.765. Its buy price (Payback Price) is $0.306, 76% below today's price. Business quality is limited: none of the 5 key numbers clears the 10% bar.

How we valued it

Free Cash Flow. Sales grew -37% a year over the last 3 years, below the 15% we look for in a fast grower, so we value it on its free cash flow instead of an earnings forecast.
