The Industrials median in the September 2026 study was 25.7×. Forward P/E is 13.3×, lower than trailing, so analysts expect earnings to grow.

- **EV / EBITDA: 23.1×**. Enterprise value is 23.1× operating earnings before depreciation, the multiple that ignores how the company is financed; above 20× is demanding.
