With Brunswick closing at US$84.66 against a narrative fair value of about US$79.76, the current price sits slightly above that framework, which leans heavily on detailed earnings and cash flow assumptions.

Brunswick's ongoing expansion of high-margin, recurring revenue streams, such as digital boating services and the Freedom Boat Club, strengthens margin stability and earnings quality, reinforced by the successful launch of new franchise locations (e.g., Dubai) and the continued global leadership of the club model.
