Crown Holdings grew revenue to $13.8bn over the twelve months to June 2026, up 13.4% on a year earlier and an acceleration from the 10.3% pace recorded a quarter earlier. Free-cash-flow margin was unchanged at 7.3%. Meanwhile, the diluted share count fell 4.8% year on year, lifting the value of each remaining share. These shifts take the fundamentals grade from C+ to B. Our model value climbs from $215 to $221 a share, well above the current share price of $116, and the rating remains Buy. At that price, the market appears to be pricing in cash flow shrinking by roughly 2.3% a year for five years, a far more pessimistic path than the 3.9% annual revenue growth the company has actually delivered.
Revenue for the twelve months to June 2026 was $13.3bn, up 10.3% on a year earlier, faster than 7.0% a quarter earlier. Free-cash-flow margin held at 9.0%. The diluted share count is down 3.9% on a year earlier, which lifts each remaining share. Against its peers on growth, profitability, cash generation and balance sheet, it grades C+. It passes 3 of our 6 financial-health checks. Our cash-flow model value is $168 a share, against a share price of $111. At that price, our model says the market is pricing in about 1.2% a year of cash-flow growth for five years, close to the 3.1% a year revenue growth it has delivered.

Company announcements, filed results and changes that matter to shareholders.
The company also guided to adjusted free cash flow of $950.00m for the full year; capital spending of $550.00m for the full year.
The share price implies cash flow shrinking about 2.1% a year for five years.That is slower than the 3.9% a year revenue growth Crown Holdings has delivered.
Our cash-flow model with every input fixed except growth over the next five years, solved for the growth at which the model value equals the share price ($120.45, Nov 3, 2026). Cash-flow growth then fades to 2.5% a year; discount rate 8.5%. Delivered figures are revenue growth from SEC filings. This is a model exercise, not investment advice or a forecast of the share price. All companies
Our value per share comes from a discounted-cash-flow model of Crown Holdings, Inc.'s free cash flow after stock-based pay ( $1.5B, FY2026 Q3 TTM, with after-tax interest added back): growth for five years as below (the first two years from forecasts, guidance and the company's record), fading to 2.5%, discounted at 8.5%, then cash added and debt and other claims subtracted. These are model values under stated assumptions, not price targets or recommendations.
We value Crown Holdings, Inc. as an operating company, with every model that fits that kind of business. Cost of equity 8.1%: the 10-year Treasury yield (4.9%) plus a beta of 0.7 times a 4.5% equity risk premium.
| Model | Value per share | In the combined value? |
|---|---|---|
| Cash-flow model (DCF) Free cash flow to the firm (after stock pay, with after-tax interest added back), grown then faded to 2.5%, discounted at 8.5% as the firm rate, less debt and other claims. | ~$250 ~$170–$350 | Primary model, counts double |
| Forward price-to-earnings vs peers Next year's consensus earnings per share times peers' typical (harmonic-mean) forward price-to-earnings. Uses analysts' consensus estimates (third-party data), not our forecasts. | ~$110 ~$110–$150 | Included |
| Residual income Book value plus the present value of returns above the cost of equity, fading over ten years. | ~$56 ~$39–$82 | Included |
| Justified price-to-book Book value times (return on equity - growth) / (cost of equity - growth): steady-state returns. | ~$61 ~$51–$76 | Included |
| Combined value Weighted average of the models that apply: the primary model (cash-flow model (dcf)) counts double. Models more than 5x or less than 0.2x the share price, or more than 3x away from the other models' median, are left out. | ~$150 ~$56–$250 | 4 models |

Not offered: no liquid put with an effective price at or below fair value.
We suggest selling a put only on well-rated companies, at a strike where the price you would pay if assigned (strike less premium) is at or below our fair value.
Not offered: no liquid call at or above our price target — the model says the upside is worth more than any listed strike.
For holders: sell a call at a strike at or above our fair value, so the shares are only sold at a price the model calls full value.
Not offered: the shares trade below our fair value: a collar caps upside the model expects.
For holders of a stock trading at or above our fair value: buy a put for a floor and sell a call to pay for it.
General research, not personal advice. Options can lose you more than you expect and are not suitable for everyone: put sellers can be made to buy shares that keep falling, call sellers give up gains above the strike, and results or news can move prices sharply. Chances shown are approximations from each option’s delta. Spreads, fees and early assignment are not modelled.
