Data as of 2026-09-08. NYSE, United States. Sector: Consumer Defensive / Food & Staples Retailing. Price $22.26, market value $2.7 billion.

## Valuation
- **P/E (trailing): 50.6×** (5-yr avg 33.7×, 3-yr avg 33.7×). Enerflex Ltd trades at 50.6× trailing earnings, well above its own five-year average of 33.7×: investors are paying up relative to the company's past. The Consumer Defensive median in the September 2026 study was 20.1×. Forward P/E is 11.8×, lower than trailing, so analysts expect earnings to grow.
- **PEG: 0.12**. A PEG of 0.12 means the P/E is low relative to expected earnings growth: the market is not paying much for that growth.
- **Price / sales: 1.1×**. Each dollar of revenue is priced at 1.1×.
- **Price / book: 2.3×**. The shares trade at 2.3× book value; book value is a meaningful part of the valuation.
- **EV / EBITDA: 8.7×**. Enterprise value is 8.7× operating earnings before depreciation, the multiple that ignores how the company is financed.
- **Free-cash-flow yield: 7.3%** (5-yr avg 25.4%). Free cash flow equals 7.3% of the market value, below its five-year average of 25.4%, so the shares are pricier on cash than usual. Above 5% is generally attractive.

- **Net margin: 2.5%**. 2.5% of each dollar of sales reaches the bottom line.
