    Acushnet (GOLF) Stock May Be Below Fair Value On Cash Flow

    Simply Wall St·09/24/2026 11:24:52
    Listen to the news

    Acushnet Holdings has delivered a solid multi year share price run, which naturally puts the spotlight on whether the current US$82.95 tag is supported by the cash it can generate. For anyone watching the golf equipment specialist, the real issue is how that recent performance lines up with an intrinsic value built from its cash flows.

    • Over the past 5 years the stock has returned 84.4%, which raises the question of how much future cash generation is already reflected in the price.
    • The business leans heavily on branded golf equipment and related products, so future cash flows will depend on how efficiently Acushnet Holdings can convert that demand into steady free cash and how much capital it needs to keep investing in its franchise.

    Is Acushnet Holdings a Bargain on Cash Flow?

    The Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) model here is built around the cash Acushnet Holdings can return to shareholders over time. Latest twelve month free cash flow sits at about $186.6 million, and the forecast path assumes that this pool of cash grows rather than shrinks, with projected yearly free cash flow moving into the mid to high $200 million range and beyond over the coming decade.

    Those projections reflect a business that is treated as mature but still expanding its cash base, rather than one reliant on a sharp rebound or a turnaround story. When those future streams are discounted back, the DCF outcome points to an intrinsic value that is substantially above the current $82.95 share price. This suggests the market is not fully matching the modelled cash generation of Acushnet Holdings. Find out what Acushnet Holdings could be worth using our Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) estimate.
