Research & Modeling

AGX Pass
Argan, Inc.
Apr 5, 2026 · DCF · Relative Valuation

Argan is a holding company whose core subsidiary, Gemma Power Systems, engineers and builds natural-gas and renewable power plants — placing it directly in the path of AI and data-center electricity demand. I built a bottom-up DCF and a peer comps set, weighed a $2.9B project backlog and a debt-free balance sheet against a stretched valuation premium, and landed on a Pass with a blended target of $455 against a $575 market price.

RTX Hold
Raytheon Technologies
Feb 2026 · DCF · Relative Val · Sensitivity Analysis

RTX is one of the world's largest aerospace and defense companies, spanning commercial jet engines at Pratt & Whitney, aircraft systems at Collins Aerospace, and missiles and defense at Raytheon. I built a full equity pitch with a DCF, relative valuation, and multi-scenario sensitivity analysis — modeling the forward earnings impact of the powder-metal contamination crisis and the GTF fleet inspection program — and landed on a Hold with a target of $208.67 against a $198.09 market price.

AAPL Model
Apple Inc.
Jun 23, 2026 · FY2025 10-K · Financial Statement Model

Apple designs the iPhone, Mac, and a growing suite of hardware, alongside a high-margin services business spanning the App Store, iCloud, and subscriptions. I built a three-statement financial model from the FY2025 10-K — full income statement, balance sheet, and supporting schedules across FY2023 to FY2025 — plus a relative valuation centered on services growth, replacement-cycle dynamics, and the capital return program.
