Unum Group (UNM) valuation and DCF model

What the price implies · reverse DCF

At $73.85 the price implies 33.6% a year of dividend growth, at a 9.0% cost of equity.

The dividend a share grew 9.7% a year over the last ten years, 9.2% over the last five. The price asks for about three times its ten-year rate. Return on equity averaged 10.7% over ten years; the price implies 9.6% for good.

In December 2017 the price assumed 21.6% a year; Unum Group went on to grow the dividend a share −7.7% a year to FY2025.

Price implies: 33.6%
Last 5 years, reported: 9.2%
Last 10 years, reported: 9.7%

The headline discounts the last twelve months’ the dividend a share at 9.0% for ten years and grows it 2.5% a year after that, the same for every company, so the figure compares across the market (how a reverse DCF works).

The other way round · DCF

The price needs: 33.6% a year for ten years; $73.85; today’s price
Its base case: 9.7% a year for five years, then 5.8%; $11.24; 84.8% below today’s price

Both are growth in the dividend a share, discounted at 9.0%, with 2.5% a year after year ten.

Its assumptions

Powerpack lets you start from a scenario and type over any of them.

1 · Dividends

Dividend a share, last twelve months ($)the four quarters to September 2026, from the 10-Q and 10-K filings

Growth, yrs 1–5 (%)

Growth, yrs 6–10 (%)

Yearly growth in the dividend. It usually slows as the company matures.

Today’s price implies the dividend a share growing 33.6% a year for ten years.

2 · Rates

Cost of equity (%)

Terminal growth (%)

Cost of equity is the yearly return shareholders require, typically 8–11%. Terminal growth is growth forever after year 10, usually near long-run inflation, 2–3%.

3 · Per share

Current price ($)

The model is a share’s own: no debt to take off and no shares to divide among.

UNM trades at 52.24× P/E, against a 10-year average of 13.28× (range 5.11×–52.24×). That is dearer than 100% of the last 9 year-end readings; re-rating to the average implies $18.77 per share.

Every growth rate on this page is the business’s — its cash flow, FFO or dividend — never its share price’s. A discounted-cash-flow model is only as good as its assumptions. Figures from the 10-K and 10-Q filings. Not investment advice.
