  • HNI Stock Shows Mixed Performance but DCF Analysis Suggests Significant Undervaluation
    January 22, 2026, 11:28 PM EST. HNI's recent stock performance has been mixed with a 2.8% decline over the past year but strong gains over three and five years at 74.4% and 67.4%, respectively. Despite cautious sentiment around office furniture and workplace solutions, the company scores well on traditional valuation checks. A Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) model, which estimates a firm's intrinsic value by forecasting and discounting future cash flows, values HNI at approximately $227.94 per share, much higher than the current price of $47.88. This suggests the stock could be undervalued by about 79%. Investors should weigh the firm's earnings expectations and risks, as reflected in HNI's price-to-earnings ratio, while reassessing its place amid shifting workspace demand trends.
