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

Analysis

Middle-of-the-road

AECOM sits in the middle of our grid: average quality, average price, no obvious signal in either direction. 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 16.0×; owner earnings: the cash an owner could take out each year. The implied growth embedded in that price is around 3% a year, against analyst forecasts of 14%. The price, in other words, assumes less than the experts do.

Growth is tepid; the safety picture is stretched. The company scores 12/20 on our value-creation score: creating some value.

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