Analysis

Middle-of-the-road

Fairfax Financial Holdings Limited sits in the middle of our grid: average quality, average price, no obvious signal in either direction.

Growth is solid; the safety picture is stretched. The company scores 12/20 on our value-creation score: creating some value.

Flags to be aware of: Reported profits have run ahead of actual cash for several periods. As always: this describes the company's numbers; it is not a recommendation.
