Analysis

Quality compounder

The Hackett Group, Inc. earns the quality_compounder label: good underlying economics priced fairly, with no obvious bargain or excess.

On valuation, the picture is fair. The owner-earnings multiple stands at 25.0×; owner earnings: the cash an owner could take out each year. The implied growth embedded in that price is around 9% a year, against analyst forecasts of 10%. The price, in other words, assumes less than the experts do.

Growth is tepid; the safety picture is adequate. The company scores 10/20 on our value-creation score: creating some value. Analysts lean positive.

Flags to be aware of: 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.
