Deckers Outdoor is scored 97 for moat and 100 for management. The management score rests on a return on invested capital of 32.9% and a gross margin of 57.7% — figures that describe a business turning capital into profit efficiently. Debt sits at 0.15x equity.
The price anchors are built on deliberately conservative assumptions. Growth is modelled at 15.0% a year, below the 17.0% actually measured over the last decade — the model caps growth rather than extrapolating a good run forwards. The exit multiple assumed is 30.0x. That produces an intrinsic value of $211.20, a 10-CAP price of $85.71 and a payback time price of $135.30, with the value zone set at the highest of the three, $135.30. Today's price of $79.57 sits inside that zone.
Deckers Outdoor currently reads as a strong business at a price the model supports. That is rare enough to warrant asking what the market sees that these figures do not.
