Bowl America Peter Lynch Fair Value Calculation

Peter Lynch Fair Value	=	PEG Ratio	*	5-Year TTM EBITDA Growth Rate^**	*	EPS without NRI (TTM)
	=	1	*	N/A	*	-0.3
	=	N/A

Bowl America's EPS without NRI for the trailing twelve months (TTM) ended in Mar. 2021 adds up the quarterly data reported by the company within the most recent 12 months, which was $-0.30.

** Please be aware that the 5-Year TTM EBITDA Growth Rate is calculated based on TTM data over the last 5 years. For quarterly reported companies, the TTM data adds up the quarterly data reported by the company within the most recent 12 months. For companies that report semi-annually, annually, or do not have enough quarterly data, GuruFocus uses the annual data as the TTM data.

If 5-Year Earnings Growth Rate is greater than 25% a year, we use 25.

If 5-Year Earnings Growth Rate is smaller than 5% a year, we do not calculate Peter Lynch Fair Value.

Please note that we use the 5-year average growth rate of EBITDA per share as the growth rate for non-bank companies, as EBITDA growth is subject to less manipulations than net earnings per share. For banks, we use the 5-year average growth rate of Book Value per share as the growth rate. The reason is that EBITDA is not applicable to Banks and Book value is a relative important measurement for Banks. In the calculation, PEG=1 because Peter Lynch thinks that the fair P/E ratio of the growth stock is equal to its earnings growth rate.
