GPCGenuine Parts Company
Is the price fair?
A demanding price: at the top of its own P/E range and rich vs its sector.
Priced for ~6% a year FCF growth. Roughly in line with its three-year revenue growth of 3% a year.
Expensive vs its own history: P/E 237.8 vs a 16.3 median over 35 quarters (+1355% vs median).
Sector median 16.2× across 156 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 30, 2026.
