Diminishing Growth
Using revenue growth of 14.3% from 2003-2004, and 6% from 2004-2005, you could project that revenue growth from 2005-2006 could be equal to: 6/14.3=.4196 .4196*6= 2.52% (new assumed growth rate) Leaving all other variables the same Estimated Intrinsic Value = $34.84

Impressive growth By Viewing the table which displays sales in yen over the 9 months ended 12/31/2004, and then looking at the sales in yen for the 9 months ended 12/31/2005 you get the following numbers 2004 sales = 6300551 2005 sales =7074255 Growth rate= 7074255/6300551= 12.2% Adjusted to 10% Estimated Intrinsic Value = $62.50
