Optimistic top

$68

Ss&C Technologies Holdings (SSNC): A conservative value band $41–$68 / sh (zero-growth floor to growth-capped optimistic top); central read about $58. Today’s price sits above that band (price $83 as of 2026-08-26).

The middle figure is the main read. The right end is the optimistic case under the same conservative caps — not an absolute ceiling.

Method & numbers

A conservative intrinsic-value band (zero-growth floor to growth-capped DCF) plus a tangible asset floor — not investment advice, not a buy/sell signal, and not a price target.

Owner-earnings DCF $47.17 – $67.93 · Greenwald zero-growth $59.02 · zero-growth base $59.02 · reproduction $4.81

Moat Franchise (moat) · terminal value 38% of present value · owner-earnings yield 7% vs 10Y 4.7%.

Graham earnings-power value (normalized NOPAT)$40.96 – $56.63 / 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: TTM 2026-06-30, 2024, 2023, 2022, 2021

v1 simplifications: Maintenance capex (degraded) deducted in full cash (write A): EPV = (NOPAT + D&A − maintenance capex) / WACC; no tax shield on the capex term. Maintenance-capex methods diverge by 2594% (> 50%); estimate is degraded. Share-based compensation is left as a real expense (not added back).

Buffett owner-earnings value$49.18 – $59.02 / 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 10.0–12.0% band (9–11% base + 1.0pp leverage premium). No enterprise→equity bridge: the capitalized result is already equity value (subtracting debt would double-count interest).

Years: TTM 2026-06-30, 2024, 2023, 2022, 2021

v1 simplifications: Owner earnings = net income + D&A − maintenance capex (degraded); the working-capital change is excluded (maintenance ΔNWC ≈ 0; growth ΔNWC is carried in growth value, not double-counted). Maintenance-capex methods diverge by 2594% (> 50%); estimate is degraded. 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 9–11% base band plus a 1.0pp leverage premium (cost of equity rises with leverage — MM Proposition II). Net debt is about 5.0 years of owner earnings, adding 1.0pp of cost-of-equity risk premium.

Reproduction value = tangible net assets $-6.53B + capitalized R&D $1.11B（FY 2026, 2024, 2023, 2022） = $4.81 / sh. Reproduction value = intangible-inclusive net reproduction (tangible net assets + acquired-intangible reset proxy + capitalized R&D), ÷ diluted shares; tangible net assets alone are negative for this asset-light franchise.

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.

Assumes a narrow moat · competitive-advantage period ≈ 10 years.

Growth value not assessable — No positive growth reinvestment in the matured window, so ROIIC cannot be computed.

Window TTM 2026-06-30, FY 2024, 2023, 2022, 2021 · discount band 9%–11% · normalized tax 21% (Average effective tax rate over 5 year(s), capped at the statutory 21%.) · diluted shares.

Baseline 9%–11%, net debt ≈ 5.0 years of owner earnings → +1.0pp cost-of-equity premium → effective 10.0%–12.0%.

Owner-earnings DCF: growth g₁ 2% · OE FY TTM 2026-06-30, 2024, 2023, 2022, 2021 · Discount band: 10.16%–13.00% (DGS10 +4.5% to a 12% strict end, each +1.00pp for leverage premium, as of 2026-08-26). 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.

Valuation basis: trailing twelve months to 2026-06-30 — latest 10-K plus unaudited 10-Q filings.

What the price is betting

Today's price pencils in about 8.3% a year in owner-earnings for the next few years. Revenue actually grew 5.8% a year.

The market wants it well ahead of its own track record.

Roughly, the price needs its historical revenue growth to run about 16 more years to hold up.
