What’s priced in

The growth today’s price assumes

To justify today’s price, free cash flow has to grow about -16.9% a year for 10 years.

That takes it from $76.6M over the four quarters to June 2026 to about $12.1M in year 10, growing 3.0% a year after that, against a market value of $290.8M.

Years of growth

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 CPI Card Group Inc’s, from that company’s own filings and current price. Companies nobody has opened here yet are read from the SEC in the background.

Market value: today's price × the Jul 28, 2026 share count on the cover of CPI Card Group Inc's latest filing, checked against Finnhub's count.

Trailing figures: the four quarters to June 2026, from CPI Card Group 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.
