Analysis

Bargain bin

Aveanna Healthcare Holdings Inc. 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 attractive. The owner-earnings multiple stands at 5.8×; owner earnings: the cash an owner could take out each year. The implied growth embedded in that price is around -11% a year, against analyst forecasts of 15%. The price, in other words, assumes less than the experts do.

Growth is solid; the safety picture is stretched. The company scores 20/20 on our value-creation score: strong value creator.

Flags to be aware of: Some accounting patterns deserve a closer look. A large part of the company's book value is the price paid for past acquisitions. Some accounting patterns deserve a closer look. Reported profits have run ahead of actual cash for several periods. As always: this describes the company's numbers; it is not a recommendation.
