Analysis
Middle-of-the-road
The Greenbrier Companies, Inc. 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 44.4× 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 17% yearly growth; analysts expect -9%. The market is pricing in far more than analysts expect: heroic expectations.
The trajectory is weak and the balance sheet is stretched. The company scores 6/20 on our value-creation score: not creating value.
What to watch: The financial cushion is thinner than comfortable. As always: this describes the company's numbers; it is not a recommendation.
