What this means

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

Analysis

Weak and unloved

Acer Incorporated is weak and unloved: below-average business metrics and a price that reflects that disappointment.

The price is expensive. You pay 35.6× 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 14% yearly growth; analysts expect 1%. The market is pricing in far more than analysts expect: heroic expectations.

The trajectory is moderate and the balance sheet is adequate. The company scores 10/20 on our value-creation score: creating some value. Analyst sentiment is cautious.

What to watch: Some accounting patterns deserve a closer look. Some accounting patterns deserve a closer look. Reported profits have run ahead of actual cash for several periods. As always: this describes the company's numbers; it is not a recommendation.
