DELLThe growth today’s price assumes
To justify today’s price, free cash flow has to grow about 12.2% a year for 10 years.
That takes it from $8.6B over the four quarters to July 2026 to about $27.1B in year 10, growing 3.0% a year after that, against a market value of $249.7B.
How it works: today’s market value is treated as the present value of all the free cash flow the company will ever produce, discounted at the required return. The calculator finds the yearly growth over the chosen years, followed by steady growth for good, that makes the two equal. It is arithmetic on today’s price, not a forecast, and it doesn’t say what the stock is worth.

Peers as listed by Finnhub, U.S. filers only, capped at six. Each figure is worked out the same way as Dell Technologies Inc’s, from that company’s own filings and current price.
Market value: Finnhub's. Dell Technologies Inc's recent filings don't state a single share count on the cover, which is usual for a company with more than one class of shares.
Trailing figures: the four quarters to July 2026, from Dell Technologies Inc's 10-Q and 10-K filings with the SEC. Free cash flow is operating cash flow minus capital expenditure, calculated by The Dispatch.
History: each quarter-end’s closing price × the share count stated in that quarter’s filing, with stock splits accounted for. Enterprise value is market value plus debt minus cash and equivalents, all as of the same date. Debt is long-term debt as filed; quarterly filings often state only the part due after the coming year, so a quarter’s figure can be slightly lower than a year-end’s. Prices from Twelve Data.
