Earnings Power & Asset Floor
Two intrinsic-value methods and a tangible asset floor — deterministic, not price forecasts or recommendations.
Snap-On Inc (SNA): A conservative earnings-power estimate, $174–$272 / sh; today’s price sits above it (price $412 as of 2026-07-02).
An observation from two valuation methods — not investment advice, not a buy/sell signal, and not a price target.

Method & numbers
Owner-earnings DCF $173.67 – $272.14 · Greenwald zero-growth $224.17 · zero-growth base $224.17 · reproduction $89.67
Moat Franchise (moat) · terminal value 40% of present value · owner-earnings yield 4% vs 10Y 4.5%.
Graham earnings-power value (normalized NOPAT)$184.92 – $224.17 / sh
Normalized NOPAT = average operating margin over the years shown × latest-year revenue × (1 − normalized tax); then + D&A − maintenance capex (write A). Unlevered (pre-interest, attributable to all capital). Capitalized at the 9–11% rate band (read as a WACC proxy). Enterprise → equity bridge applied: + cash − total debt.
Years: 2026, 2025, 2024, 2023, 2022
v1 simplifications: Maintenance capex unavailable → degraded to the v1 simplification (maintenance capex = D&A, so the depreciation add-back nets to zero). Share-based compensation is left as a real expense (not added back).
Buffett owner-earnings value$164.81 – $201.43 / sh
Owner earnings = average net income + average D&A − maintenance capex (zero-growth floor; no ΔNWC). Levered (starts from net income, already after interest — an equity-holder stream). Capitalized at the 9–11% rate band (read as a cost-of-equity proxy). No enterprise→equity bridge: the capitalized result is already equity value (subtracting debt would double-count interest).
Years: 2026, 2025, 2024, 2023, 2022
v1 simplifications: Maintenance capex or D&A unavailable → degraded to normalized net income (= average net income over the years shown). One-time items are not separately normalized (multi-year averaging smooths them partially). Share-based compensation is left as a real expense (not added back); see the SBC/OE disclosure. Capitalized at the same 9–11% band as a cost-of-equity proxy (theoretically the cost of equity is higher; v2 simplification, v3 to refine).
Reproduction value = tangible net assets $4.55B + capitalized R&D $201.08M（FY 2026, 2025, 2024, 2023, 2022） = $89.67 / sh. Reproduction value = tangible net assets (equity − goodwill − intangibles) + capitalized R&D (5y straight-line), ÷ diluted shares.
Moat reading: Franchise test compares earnings power (EPV) against reproduction value (tangible net assets + capitalized R&D). EPV well above reproduction value signals a moat; near it, a commodity; below it, value destruction. A directional reading, not a verdict.
Growth value not assessable — No positive growth reinvestment in the matured window, so ROIIC cannot be computed.
Window FY 2026, 2025, 2024, 2023, 2022 · discount band 9%–11% · normalized tax 21% (Average effective tax rate over 5 year(s), capped at the statutory 21%.) · diluted shares.
Owner-earnings DCF: growth g₁ 6% · OE FY 2026, 2025, 2024, 2023, 2022 · Discount band: 8.98%–12.00% (DGS10 +4.5% to a 12% strict end, as of 2026-07-01). No enterprise→equity bridge: owner earnings already flow to shareholders (post-interest), so no net cash is added and no debt subtracted — matching the engine owner-earnings lamp.
