FSSFederal Signal Corporation
Is the price fair?
Neither cheap nor expensive: nothing decisive, though modest expectations priced in.
Priced for ~6% a year FCF growth. The price demands less than its three-year revenue growth of 16% a year, expectations look modest.
In its normal range: P/E 24.4 vs a 21.4 median over 41 quarters (+14% vs median).
Sector median 21.2× across 246 covered peers. EV/EBIT counts debt as part of the price, so a cash-rich and a borrowed company can be compared on the same footing.
Unless marked, from derived, as of Jun 30, 2026.
