A Discounted Cash Flow, or DCF, model takes estimates of the cash a company may generate in the future and discounts those back to what they could be worth today. It is essentially a way of translating future free cash flows into a single present value number.

For Cirrus Logic, the latest twelve month Free Cash Flow is about $524.8 million. The model used here is a 2 Stage Free Cash Flow to Equity approach, which starts with more detailed near term projections and then tapers into extrapolated estimates. For example, Simply Wall St shows forecast free cash flow of $369.8 million in 2026 and $392.3 million in 2028. Further out, extrapolated figures run to 2035, with discounted values applied to each projected year.

When all of those discounted cash flows are added together, the estimated intrinsic value comes out at about $91.73 per share. Compared with the recent share price of $123.21, the DCF output suggests Cirrus Logic is around 34.3% overvalued on this model.
