Scenario calculator
Enter EPS growth and exit P/E per scenario. The chart starts at the current share price (Now) and transitions the P/E from today's trailing multiple toward your Exit P/E over the horizon. Same live price and TTM EPS as the rest of the page.
Implied price path (by year)
Paths start at $48.99 (Now); the P/E transitions from today's trailing multiple toward Exit P/E by the horizon year.
2031 (horizon)
| Price | Total | CAGR | |
|---|---|---|---|
| bear | $13.47 | -72.5% | -22.8% |
| base | $20.90 | -57.3% | -15.7% |
| bull | $50.93 | +4.0% | +0.8% |
Base case: with about 2% growth per year and a 7× exit multiple over 5 years, the model lands NC near $20.90 — an implied about a 15.7% annual decline.
Sensitivity (base case)
Sensitivity grid — sweeps EPS growth and exit P/E around your base inputs. Simple mode only; bear, bull, and Advanced (revenue) paths are not included.
Implied share price at the horizon for each combination: EPS growth in the rows, exit P/E in the columns; other settings stay fixed.

Shade depth: darker fill within the same color band means a higher implied price in that cell (across the grid).
Annual diluted EPS
GAAP diluted earnings per share by fiscal year (from reported statements). Use it as context for the EPS growth assumptions in the scenario calculator above — not a forecast.
Across 14 fiscal years, diluted EPS went from about $12.92 in 2012 to about $2.35 in 2025.
Scale: -5.29 to 12.92 EPS; horizontal line at 0. Fiscal years with no row in the database are omitted.
Diluted EPS year-over-year change
Percent change vs the previous fiscal year in this series. If a fiscal year is missing in the database, the comparison is to the prior available year (not necessarily the prior calendar year).
Year-over-year EPS change in this window ranged from a high of +218.6% to a low of -191.8%.
Historical multiples
Each bar is the trailing five-year range (low left, high right). Gray fill from low to today; dot = today; amber tick = median. Low, median, and high are listed under each bar.

Frequently asked questions
How is NC's price target calculated?
Price targets here use projected EPS × exit P/E. Future EPS = TTM EPS × (1 + growth)^years, then price = future EPS × P/E. The tool pre-fills analyst consensus and historical ranges for NACCO Industries (NC) so you can compare your assumptions to the data.
What is NC's base-case price target?
With about 2% annual EPS growth and a 7× exit P/E over 5 years, the base case for NACCO Industries (NC) lands near $20.90, implying roughly -15.7% CAGR. This is illustrative, not a forecast.
What P/E ratio should I use for NC?
Defaults use the 5-year median P/E (about 6.5×) for the base case, the 25th percentile for bear and the 75th for bull. Adjust the Exit P/E sliders if you have a different valuation view.
What is NC's expected return in this model?
Expected return depends on your assumptions. The calculator reports CAGR = (Future price / Current price)^(1/Years) − 1. This is illustrative only and not investment advice.
Is NC's P/E high or low historically?
NC currently trades at about 20.7× earnings, 218.3% above its 5-year median of 6.5×. The historical multiples card shows the full 5- and 10-year range.
How fast has NC's EPS grown over the past 5 years?
NACCO Industries (NC) grew diluted EPS at about 2.3% per year over the trailing 5 fiscal years. Historical growth is one input; the bull and bear cases let you pressure-test what happens if the next 5 years differ.
What time horizon does the price target use?
The default horizon is 5 years; you can change it from 1 to 10 years. Longer horizons compound EPS growth and re-rating effects more strongly, so total returns become more sensitive to assumptions.
Is this a recommendation to buy or sell NC?
No. The price-target calculator is an educational tool that turns explicit growth and P/E assumptions into a model price. Peers in the Energy sector are listed below for context. It is not investment advice and does not predict future returns.
