CALXCalix, Inc.
Is the price fair?
A demanding price: priced for +9% a year vs +4% a year delivered and rich vs its sector.
Priced for ~9% a year FCF growth. The price demands more than its three-year revenue growth of 4% a year, priced for acceleration.
In its normal range: P/E 49.6 vs a 72.2 median over 18 quarters (−31% vs median).
Sector median 30.5× across 203 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.
