Osterweis started buying Crown at $9 per share 3 years ago. In a recent interview, Osterweis was asked the following Q and gave the following answer: At $22.50, how cheap are the shares? SK: The stock currently trades at about 10x the $2.30 per share we expect it to earn in free cash flow this year. From revenue growth, share buybacks and paying down higher-cost debt, we see that free cash flow number growing around 10% per year. For a company with those dynamics, there’s no reason it can’t trade at a 12-14x multiple, which would make the share price rise to as much as the low- $30s within the next year or so.
