Analysis
Middle-of-the-road
Diageo plc 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 30.7× 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 12% yearly growth; analysts expect 3%. The gap between price and consensus is worth watching: demanding expectations.
The trajectory is tepid and the balance sheet is stretched. The company scores 12/20 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.
