Analysis
Middle-of-the-road
Coats Group plc is a middle-of-the-road business: neither the economics nor the price stand out from the peer group.
The price is fair. You pay 15.8× its owner earnings: the cash an owner could take out each year, which is in the historically fair zone. At today's price, the market is assuming roughly 3% yearly growth; analysts expect 12%. The price, in other words, assumes less than the experts do.
The trajectory is solid and the balance sheet is stretched. The company scores 12/20 on our value-creation score: creating some value.
What to watch: The financial cushion is thinner than comfortable. As always: this describes the company's numbers; it is not a recommendation.
