The yardsticks disagree: cheap against its own 5-year P/E range (2nd percentile) but the cash-flow math implies demanding growth. Treat as fair, not cheap.
Priced for ~13% a year FCF growth. The price already bakes in strong, sustained growth.
Cheap vs its own history: P/E 13.8 vs a 21.8 median over 41 quarters (−37% vs median).
