While the popular Enphase Energy narrative leans on a modest 7.6% discount to a $48.51 fair value, the SWS DCF model points the other way. On this cash flow view, Enphase Energy at $44.83 trades above an estimated future cash flow value of $34.29, which frames the stock as overvalued instead of undervalued.
