## Valuation
- **P/E (trailing): 12.1×** (5-yr avg 11.1×, 3-yr avg 11.0×). ACT Energy Technologies Ltd. trades at 12.1× trailing earnings, close to its own five-year average of 11.1×. The Energy median in the September 2026 study was 16.8×. Forward P/E is 5.2×, lower than trailing, so analysts expect earnings to grow.
- **Price / sales: 0.6×**. Each dollar of revenue is priced at 0.6×, a low multiple typical of thin-margin businesses or out-of-favour stocks.
- **Price / book: 1.1×**. The shares trade at 1.1× book value; book value is a meaningful part of the valuation.
- **EV / EBITDA: 4.6×**. Enterprise value is 4.6× operating earnings before depreciation, the multiple that ignores how the company is financed; below 8× is inexpensive for most sectors.
- **Free-cash-flow yield: 3.5%** (5-yr avg 13.7%). Free cash flow equals 3.5% of the market value, below its five-year average of 13.7%, so the shares are pricier on cash than usual.

- **Net margin: 3.3%**. 3.3% of each dollar of sales reaches the bottom line.
