VMIValmont Industries, Inc.
Is the price fair?
The yardsticks disagree: cheap against its own 5-year P/E range (23rd percentile) but the cash-flow math implies demanding growth. Treat as fair, not cheap.
Priced for ~13% a year FCF growth. The price already bakes in strong, sustained growth.
Cheap vs its own history: P/E 18.3 vs a 24.7 median over 40 quarters (−26% vs median).
Sector median 23.3× across 246 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.
