SHCSotera Health Company
Is the price fair?
The yardsticks disagree: cheap against its own 5-year P/E range (13th percentile) but the cash-flow math implies demanding growth. Treat as fair, not cheap.
Priced for ~16% a year FCF growth. The price demands more than its three-year revenue growth of 8% a year, priced for acceleration.
Cheap vs its own history: P/E 31.7 vs a 66.1 median over 16 quarters (−52% vs median).

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