Analysis

Middle-of-the-road

Werner Enterprises, Inc. sits in the middle of our grid: average quality, average price, no obvious signal in either direction.

On valuation, the picture is expensive. The owner-earnings multiple stands at 614.2×; owner earnings: the cash an owner could take out each year.

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