What's Driving This Ratingfor REG

↓

CapEx normalizing toward maintenance

Historical CapEx is 12.31% of revenue (heavy investment phase). Model fades this to 2.50% by Year 10, freeing up ~$248M in annual FCF. This is the biggest driver of long-term cash flow improvement.

✓

Premium margins already priced in

EBIT margin of 38.83% is already well above sector average. The model holds this level — there's limited room for margin expansion to drive upside. Valuation depends primarily on revenue growth.

→

Moderate revenue growth

Analyst consensus projects 6.86% revenue growth, fading to 2.50% by Year 10. Revenue reaches $2.5B (vs $1.6B today).

✓

Model and market roughly agree

Market-implied terminal growth of 2.19% is close to the model's 2.50% (only 31bps apart). The DCF assumptions are well-aligned with how the market is pricing this stock.

✓

Strong cash flow conversion

Year 10 FCF/EBITDA conversion of 81.88% indicates efficient cash generation. FCF reaches $1.2B by Year 10 (49.25% FCF margin).

WACC Calculation

WACC = (E/V × Re) + (D/V × Rd × (1-Tc))

WACC = (71.11% × 8.74%) + (28.89% × 2.26%)

= 6.87%
