Reverse DCF

What growth is priced into CACI?

CHEAP

At today's price, CACI International Inc. Class A needs to grow free cash flow about 2.0% a year for the next 10 years to justify its valuation at a 6.73% cost of capital. Over its actual history it has compounded free cash flow at 8.5% a year, so the market is asking for 6.5 percentage points below its own delivered rate. On that basis CACI looks priced below what its own growth record supports.

Implied FCF growth: 2.0%
Historical FCF CAGR: 8.5%
Growth gap: -6.5 pts
Verdict: CHEAP

Behaviour On Record

What CACI's own history says about today's numbers

Realized volatility (21d): 31.5% 78th pct
Below its peak: -8.5%
vs 200-day average: +10.9%
Up days (1y): 50%

CACI International Inc. Class A is currently running 31.5% annualised volatility over the last 21 sessions. Measured against CACI's own 13 years of daily returns rather than a market-wide average, that is the 78th percentile — elevated for this stock, against a typical reading of 22.1%. The distinction matters because a number that looks calm for one stock is turbulent for another, and the absolute figure on its own tells you neither.

CACI is trading -8.5% below its running peak. Across 12 full years on file, its median worst-drawdown-in-a-year was -19.3%, and the deepest was -41.4% in 2020. The current pullback is therefore shallower than what this stock gives back in a typical year, which is context worth having before treating it as a dislocation.

Price sits +10.9% from its 200-day moving average. Against every other day in its history, that gap ranks at the 64th percentile — a somewhat wider gap than its own norm. Over the past year CACI closed higher on 50% of sessions, and it is currently 1 session into a rising streak.

On October specifically: over 13 years of records, CACI finished the month higher 10 of 13 times, with a median return of +6.6% and an average of +7.1%. Its strongest month historically has been October at +7.1% on average, its weakest December at -3.1%. Seasonality is a weak signal on its own — a decade is a small sample and regimes change — but it is a real distribution rather than a rule of thumb.

Overnight risk is measurable too: CACI has opened more than 2% away from the prior close in 99 of 3,267 sessions (3.0% of the time), with the largest gaps running +9.5% and -12.5%. For anyone holding through an event, that rate is a better guide to overnight exposure than the intraday range.

All figures computed from 3,268 daily closes between 2013-10-07 and 2026-10-05, split-adjusted, recomputed daily. Percentiles are against CACI's own 13-year history, not a peer group or index.
