HPHelmerich & Payne, Inc.
Is the price fair?
Neither cheap nor expensive: modest expectations priced in, but at the top of its own P/E range and rich vs its sector.
Priced for a decline (~−3% a year). The price demands less than its three-year revenue growth of 12% a year, expectations look modest.
Expensive vs its own history: P/E 11.3 vs a 10.5 median over 15 quarters (+8% vs median).
Sector median 12.7× across 65 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.
