Price vs fair value The stock trades at a PREMIUM of 15.00% to our fair-value estimate of 32.65 and at a discount of 13.57% to the 12-month target of 43.60. - Board refresh may support governance (Simply Wall St. 2026-07-31) - RBC expects Q3 same-store sales to beat (MT Newswires 2026-07-29) - Analysts cite improving industry volumes (Zacks 2026-07-28)
Looking forward Forward P/E of 17.64 and PEG of 0.09 imply earnings recovery, but high leverage and valuation multiples (P/E 52.05, EV/EBITDA 16.47) temper upside unless margins expand.
