Is the price fair?

Fair

Neither cheap nor expensive: modest expectations priced in and cheap vs its sector, but at the top of its own P/E range.

2 good, 1 to watch

What the price assumes~+2% a year

Priced for ~2% a year FCF growth. Little growth is priced in even as revenue fell 2% a year over three years, potential value, or a value trap.

Vs its own P/E rangedearer than 86% of its own historyderived

Expensive vs its own history: P/E 42.2 vs a 17.7 median over 29 quarters (+138% vs median).

Vs sector (EV/EBIT)16.0×

Sector median 18.9× across 51 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.
