## Valuation
- **P/E (trailing): 56.2×** (5-yr avg 4152.7×, 3-yr avg 4587.5×). Advanced Medical Solutions Group plc trades at 56.2× trailing earnings, well below its own five-year average of 4152.7×: cheap by its own standards. The Healthcare median in the September 2026 study was 28.5×. Forward P/E is 16.6×, lower than trailing, so analysts expect earnings to grow.
- **PEG: 0.42**. A PEG of 0.42 means the P/E is low relative to expected earnings growth: the market is not paying much for that growth.
- **Price / sales: 1.5×**. Each dollar of revenue is priced at 1.5×.
- **Price / book: 2.3×**. The shares trade at 2.3× book value; book value is a meaningful part of the valuation.
- **EV / EBITDA: 9.8×**. Enterprise value is 9.8× operating earnings before depreciation, the multiple that ignores how the company is financed.
- **Free-cash-flow yield: 5.8%** (5-yr avg 0.0%). Free cash flow equals 5.8% of the market value, above its five-year average of 0.0%, so the shares are cheaper on cash than they have usually been. Above 5% is generally attractive.
