Price vs fair value The stock trades at a **discount of 1.80%** versus the analyst mean target of 140.38. - Analysts see potential upside ahead of sector trends (Barchart) - Forward P/E of 17.36 is below 5-year average, suggesting valuation support - High EV/EBITDA 33.19 and P/E 520.58 reflect thin margins and low earnings power - Dividend yield 3.1% and payout 56.6% support income appeal
Looking forward Forward PEG of 0.01 signals extreme earnings sensitivity, while FCF yield 4.8% provides some cash return support. Growth remains challenged by weak ROIC and high leverage. Momentum trends (3m 43.69%) may reflect short-term sentiment rather than fundamental improvement.
