Analysis

Hidden champion

Blackbaud, Inc. is what we call a hidden champion: a strong business that the market is not pricing as one.

The price is attractive. You pay 7.2× its owner earnings: the cash an owner could take out each year, which is in the historically attractive zone.

The trajectory is tepid and the balance sheet is stretched. The company scores 16/20 on our value-creation score: strong value creator.

What to watch: A large part of the company's book value is the price paid for past acquisitions. As always: this describes the company's numbers; it is not a recommendation.
