Data as of 2026-09-08. NASDAQ, United States. Sector: Consumer Cyclical / Automobiles. Price $13.56, market value $2.2 billion.

## Valuation
- **P/E (trailing): 13.7×** (5-yr avg 227.2×, 3-yr avg 17.4×). Driven Brands Holdings Inc. trades at 13.7× trailing earnings, well below its own five-year average of 227.2×: cheap by its own standards. The Consumer Cyclical median in the September 2026 study was 19.5×. Forward P/E is 9.4×, lower than trailing, so analysts expect earnings to grow.
- **PEG: 0.06**. A PEG of 0.06 means the P/E is low relative to expected earnings growth: the market is not paying much for that growth.
- **Price / sales: 1.2×**. Each dollar of revenue is priced at 1.2×.
- **Price / book: 2.7×**. The shares trade at 2.7× book value; book value is a meaningful part of the valuation.
- **EV / EBITDA: 12.9×**. Enterprise value is 12.9× operating earnings before depreciation, the multiple that ignores how the company is financed.
- **Free-cash-flow yield: 5.9%** (5-yr avg -3.2%). Free cash flow equals 5.9% of the market value, above its five-year average of -3.2%, so the shares are cheaper on cash than they have usually been. Above 5% is generally attractive.
- **Earnings yield: 7.3%**. The inverse of the P/E: 7.3% of the price is earned each year.

- **EPS growth (1 yr): 145.7%** (3-yr 50.4%/yr). Earnings per share rose 145.7%, faster than revenue, so margins expanded or the share count shrank.
