The Consumer Defensive median in the September 2026 study was 20.1×. Forward P/E is 23.6×, lower than trailing, so analysts expect earnings to grow.

- **Price / sales: 4.5×**. Each dollar of revenue is priced at 4.5×.
- **Price / book: 7.9×**. The shares trade at 7.9× book value; most of the value is in earnings power and intangibles rather than the balance sheet.
- **Free-cash-flow yield: 3.9%** (5-yr avg 1.2%). Free cash flow equals 3.9% of the market value, above its five-year average of 1.2%, so the shares are cheaper on cash than they have usually been.
