CPBCampbell's Company (The)
Is the price fair?
Neither cheap nor expensive: nothing decisive, though modest expectations priced in.
Priced for a decline (~−5% a year). The price bakes in little to no growth.
In its normal range: P/E 14.8 vs a 16.1 median over 40 quarters (−8% vs median).
Sector median 16.6× across 78 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 Aug 2, 2026.
