Is the price fair?
A demanding price: priced for +12% a year vs −8% a year delivered, at the top of its own P/E range, and rich vs its sector.
Priced for ~12% a year FCF growth. The price already bakes in strong, sustained growth.
Expensive vs its own history: P/E 42.9 vs a 20.4 median over 40 quarters (+110% 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 27, 2026.
