What this means

Cencosud clears its cost of capital, but the record is mixed across the five tests. Real value creation, just not yet consistent.

Analysis

Middle-of-the-road

Cencosud S.A. 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 267.5× 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 42% yearly growth; analysts expect 14%. The market is pricing in far more than analysts expect: heroic expectations.

The trajectory is tepid and the balance sheet is stretched. The company scores 8/20 on our value-creation score: creating some value.

What to watch: The financial cushion is thinner than comfortable. As always: this describes the company's numbers; it is not a recommendation.
