VECOVeeco Instruments Inc.
Is the price fair?
A demanding price: priced for +19% a year vs +2% a year delivered, at the top of its own P/E range, and rich vs its sector.
Priced for ~19% a year FCF growth. The price demands more than its three-year revenue growth of 2% a year, priced for acceleration.
Expensive vs its own history: P/E 145.4 vs a 30.6 median over 19 quarters (+376% vs median).
Sector median 30.5× across 203 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.
