Durham Corporation currently has free cash flow (FCF) of $ 15 million. A well- respected stock analyst estimates that this FCF will increase by 8 % for the next 5 years. The analyst estimates that at the end of 5 years the company's terminal value will be based on the year 5 FCF and the long term FCF growth rate of 4%.
