Stock Analysis: AAPL

As the iPhone, new series of iPod, iMac and iWork were launched throughout these few months, Apple has a strong product portfolio lines from hardware to sofware. Thus, this attracted the OKII fund founder to analyze on this famous company which is lead by Steve Jobs.

Sometime, a good company may not trade at great fair value price to buy in. Thus, a fundamental of analysis has been carried out to find the fair value of Apple on Oct 5, 07.

Here is the PE analysis result:
Assume that Q4 of 07 is up 7% from previous quater, where the revenue is 5.82 bil and EPS is $1.17. This will yield the 2007 year's revenue and EPS of 23.6 bil and $4.17 respectively. Again, the PE analysis is using the historical data of 6 years PE rack record, which is from 2002 to 2007.


The target price is projected as $106.39, which is the center point Avg PE (39.24) and Min PE (11.79) with EPS of $4.17.

Here is the Deal:
So, for Avg PE's result, there is only 1.4% of safety margin with respect to current trading price on 10/07/07, which is $163.63 divided by $161.45. Thus, this great company stock price is trading at ~60% of targeted price and this is not the right time to buy in ($161.45/$106.39).
