## Valuation
- **P/E (trailing): n/a** (negative earnings). ACV Auctions Inc. reported negative earnings over the last twelve months, so the P/E is not meaningful; use price-to-sales, EV/EBITDA and free-cash-flow yield instead.

- **Price / sales: 1.5×**. Each dollar of revenue is priced at 1.5×.
- **Price / book: 3.0×**. The shares trade at 3.0× book value; book value is a meaningful part of the valuation.
- **Free-cash-flow yield: 2.5%** (5-yr avg 0.7%). Free cash flow equals 2.5% of the market value, above its five-year average of 0.7%, so the shares are cheaper on cash than they have usually been.
