What this means

PI Industries clears its cost of capital, but the record is mixed across the five tests. Real value creation, just not yet consistent.

Based on 3/5 components.

Description

Analysis

Hope premium

PI Industries Limited is priced well ahead of what the underlying numbers justify, a pattern we describe as a hope premium. Worth noting: the cash the business generates has lagged behind what the income statement shows.

On valuation, the picture is expensive. The owner-earnings multiple stands at 64.0×; owner earnings: the cash an owner could take out each year. The implied growth embedded in that price is around 22% a year, against analyst forecasts of 10%. The market is pricing in far more than analysts expect: heroic expectations.

Growth is moderate; the safety picture is sturdy. The company scores 10/20 on our value-creation score: creating some value.

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