Price these guesses point to$36.75+20% vs $30.69 todayAbout +3.7% a year, before dividends

What today's price needs: with a 8% margin and a 12x P/E, sales could shrink about 7.4% a year for 5 years and still match today's price.

Simple math on your guesses, not a forecast or a price target. Real results depend on many things these sliders leave out.
