Analysis
Middle-of-the-road
Henry Boot PLC sits in the middle of our grid: average quality, average price, no obvious signal in either direction.

The implied growth embedded in that price is around -7% a year, against analyst forecasts of 7%. The price, in other words, assumes less than the experts do.
