SFMSprouts Farmers Market, Inc.
Is the price fair?
Undemanding: modest expectations priced in, cheap against its own history, and cheap vs its sector.
Priced for ~7% a year FCF growth. The price demands less than its three-year revenue growth of 11% a year, expectations look modest.
Cheap vs its own history: P/E 12.5 vs a 17.5 median over 41 quarters (−29% 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.

Where this answer is blind. The growth-implied estimate assumes a fixed discount rate; capital-heavy sectors look structurally rich on it.
