Analysis

Middle-of-the-road

Eaton Corporation plc is a middle-of-the-road business: neither the economics nor the price stand out from the peer group.

The price is expensive. You pay 37.4× its owner earnings: the cash an owner could take out each year, which is in the historically expensive zone. At today's price, the market is assuming roughly 15% yearly growth; analysts expect 10%. The gap between price and consensus is worth watching: demanding expectations.

The trajectory is moderate and the balance sheet is stretched. The company scores 14/20 on our value-creation score: strong value creator.

What to watch: Some accounting patterns deserve a closer look. As always: this describes the company's numbers; it is not a recommendation.
