Each LLM call returns one number. Rows are ordered by absolute weighted valuation impact.

Rank Parameter Numeric shock Valuation contribution Rationale
1 revenue_growth +5.00% +5.38% Acquiring Hugging Face could significantly boost NVIDIA's AI platform revenue growth by expanding it
2 capex +12.00% -2.04% The acquisition of Hugging Face for $12.9 billion represents a significant capital expenditure, incr

6. Pricing Models and Weighted Valuation Change

Model Applicability weight Raw Δ fair value Weighted Δ
dcf 35% +10.00% +3.50%
forward_pe 30% +8.50% +2.55%
fcf_yield 20% -6.00% -1.20%
peg 15% +10.50% +1.57%

7. Priced-In and Expectation-Gap Adjustment 

implied_delta = Σ(model weight × Σ(parameter shock × elasticity))
priced_in = max(aligned price drift, historical information diffusion)
expected_residual = implied_delta × (1 - priced_in) × reaction_efficiency

10. Audit Notes

  • Every reusable numeric field from the narrative report is included above.
  • Parameter names are restricted to the asset-specific registry.
  • Model weights sum to 100%; all model contributions are retained.
  • Historical efficiency uses a bounded median to reduce outlier influence.
  • Direction codes are +1 for up, 0 for flat/unavailable, and -1 for down.
