If you believe JWN can sustain margins and growth materially above the current 2.2% revenue growth while reducing leverage, then owning JWN makes sense because its DCF range of $36.10-$48.84 is well below the implied $120.41 price; otherwise, NOW remains the stronger quality compounder based on 20.9% growth, 77.5% gross margin, and a net cash balance sheet.
The main valuation gap is that JWN’s implied price of $120.41 sits well above its DCF range of $36.10-$48.84, while NOW trades at a rich market multiple profile with P/E of 69.2x and P/S of 9.0x. The spread is driven less by near-term earnings power at JWN and more by NOW’s much stronger growth and margin structure.
