The Industrials median in the September 2026 study was 25.7×. Forward P/E is 37.1×, lower than trailing, so analysts expect earnings to grow.

- **Price / sales: 6.9×**. Each dollar of revenue is priced at 6.9×.
- **Price / book: 19.8×**. The shares trade at 19.8× book value; most of the value is in earnings power and intangibles rather than the balance sheet.
- **Free-cash-flow yield: 2.4%** (5-yr avg 4.0%). Free cash flow equals 2.4% of the market value, below its five-year average of 4.0%, so the shares are pricier on cash than usual.
- **Earnings yield: 2.5%**. The inverse of the P/E: 2.5% of the price is earned each year.

## Profitability
- **Net margin: 19.0%**. 19.0% of each dollar of sales reaches the bottom line.
