What is the price target of CRA International Inc (CRAI)?

The 12-month analyst consensus target is $250.50, about 54.7% above the current $161.88. A consensus target is the average of Wall Street's 12-month forecasts, so it works as a sentiment gauge rather than a guarantee, and it resets with every earnings cycle.

What is the intrinsic value of CRA International Inc (CRAI)?

Our DCF model estimates intrinsic value at $86.82, a -89.0% margin of safety versus today's $161.88. Intrinsic value is what the projected cash flows are worth today. A negative reading means the price is running ahead of that conservative estimate, leaving little downside cushion if growth slows.
