Reverse DCF, on our cash-flow model rather than the fair value above: Today's price implies revenue growth of more than 25%/yr. Above about 25% a year the reverse-DCF stops being informative. It solves for revenue growth alone — holding margins, capital intensity and the forecast horizon fixed — so a price well above our cash-flow model's value has nowhere to go but growth, and the solver returns a rate the model can't reconcile. Read it as "the price implies growth we can't justify", not as a forecast.

PINS DCF valuation, input by input
TickerWorth's fair value for Pinterest, Inc. (PINS) is $37.35 a share, against the delayed market price of $21.91 (priced within our range of $20.73 – $44.47). We do not call it over- or undervalued from inside our range. It is a model estimate, and every input behind it is sourced below.
Read the full reasoning
For this company that blend leans on peer multiples: our discounted-cash-flow model understates a business growing this fast, so read the gap as how the market prices it against comparable companies, not as a finding on cash flow. This is an educational model, not a price target or a recommendation.
The valuation discounts Pinterest, Inc.'s projected free cash flows at a weighted-average cost of capital (WACC) of 9.2%, with a long-run terminal growth rate of 2.5%. About 55% of the enterprise value comes from the terminal value — the portion beyond the explicit forecast window — which is typical for a stable, cash-generative business and a reminder that small changes in the discount rate or terminal growth assumption swing the intrinsic value meaningfully.
Running the DCF in reverse — solving for the growth the current price already assumes — PINS would need sustained revenue growth of more than 25%/yr to justify today's price, against about 13.3% a year compounded in our base case. We don't quote a precise figure here, because past about 25% a year the reverse-DCF stops being informative: it solves for revenue growth alone, holding margins, capital intensity and the forecast horizon fixed, so a price well above our fair value has nowhere to go but growth. The honest reading is that the price implies growth this model can't reconcile — not that we forecast it.
Sensitivity matters more than any single number. Across a reasonable band of discount-rate assumptions, PINS's modeled DCF value ranges from about $3.39 to $5.85 per share. If that range still sits below today's price, the market is optimistic relative to the model across the whole band; if it brackets the price, the stock is roughly fairly valued on our assumptions. Use the interactive slider to see exactly where your own cost-of-capital view lands.
How to read this page: the DCF fair value is what Pinterest, Inc. would be worth if its cash flows grow as modeled and are discounted at the stated WACC. The assumptions table shows every input and its source; the reverse-DCF shows what the market believes; the sensitivity band shows how fragile the answer is. None of this is investment advice — it is a transparent, auditable framework for forming your own view of PINS's intrinsic value. Figures update as new filings and prices come in.
