Analysis

Weak and unloved

Malibu Boats, Inc. is weak and unloved: below-average business metrics and a price that reflects that disappointment.

The price is expensive. You pay 28.8× its owner earnings: the cash an owner could take out each year, which is in the historically expensive zone.

The trajectory is tepid and the balance sheet is adequate. The company scores 8/20 on our value-creation score: creating some value.

What to watch: Some accounting patterns deserve a closer look. As always: this describes the company's numbers; it is not a recommendation.
