What will Microsoft stock be worth in 10 years?
The 10-year to 3-year median earnings multiples all lie between 26 and 33. If we get the average of that, 29, we would get to a share price estimate of ~$630 in 2031, based on our estimated EPS of $21.70. This would equate to a 125% gain over the next decade, with some additional returns stemming from MSFT's dividend.
Ten Year Stock Price Total Return for Microsoft is calculated as follows: Last Close Price [ 411.22 ] / Adj Prior Close Price [ 30.16 ] (-) 1 (=) Total Return [ 1,263.4% ] Prior price dividend adjustment factor is 0.84.
