DCF P(above)=0.7%, FV=$106 vs current ~$210. Stock at 2x DCF FV. Packaging Corporation: corrugated containerboard, strong market position but commodity-linked earnings. Capex-intensive expansion (new mill in Jackson, AL) creating near-term earnings dilution. At $210 vs DCF $106, this is priced significantly above intrinsic value.
