Analysis

Quality compounder

WashTec AG is a quality compounder: a well-run business trading at a price that reflects what it is worth. One caution: reported profits have recently run ahead of actual cash, which we track closely.

The price is fair. You pay 17.5× its owner earnings: the cash an owner could take out each year, which is in the historically fair zone. At today's price, the market is assuming roughly 4% yearly growth; analysts expect 19%. The price, in other words, assumes less than the experts do.

The trajectory is solid and the balance sheet is adequate. The company scores 18/20 on our value-creation score: strong value creator. Analysts lean positive.

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