Analysis
Bargain bin
KSB SE & Co. KGaA is priced cheaply, and that invites the natural question of why, since the underlying business scores below average. Worth noting: the cash the business generates has lagged behind what the income statement shows.
On valuation, the picture is fair. The owner-earnings multiple stands at 23.2×; owner earnings: the cash an owner could take out each year.
Growth is moderate; the safety picture is sturdy. The company scores 16/20 on our value-creation score: strong value creator. Analysts lean positive.
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.
