GDGeneral Dynamics
Is the price fair?
Undemanding: cheap against its own history and cheap vs its sector.
Cheap vs its own history: P/E 11.0 vs a 13.7 median over 18 quarters (−20% 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.
Where this answer is blind. The growth-implied estimate assumes a fixed discount rate; capital-heavy sectors look structurally rich on it.
What GD's price assumes
General Dynamics has no trailing P/E on file, so the price is measured against sales instead: 1.72× revenue.
