What problem does it solve? Turning a company narrative and cleaned financials into a defensible discounted cash flow value per share requires disciplined model selection, terminal-value rules, and consistency checks that are easy to get wrong by hand. This stage brief governs that entire span, from choosing the model variant to stating what the current market price already assumes. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Model and driver selection: Chooses cash-flow measure, discount rate, stage count, and nominal or real basis, then sets every forecast driver from graded claims with a written sentence behind each. - Scripted engine execution: Runs the dcf-valuation-engine scripts for valuation, sensitivity grids, and implied-expectations solves, with no arithmetic done in prose. - Terminal discipline and validation: Enforces growth at or below the riskfree rate, terminal reinvestment identity, and a validator pass before declaring the stage complete. - Use Case: An orchestrated valuation team needs a value per share for a standard-route company after the cost of capital is fixed; this brief produces forecast.json, dcf-result.json, and a readable intrinsic.md report. ## Quick Start Ask the agent to run the intrinsic valuation stage for the company using the provided mandate, classification, cleaned financials, and cost-of-capital artifacts, and return the value per share with its sensitivity range.
