## Valuation
- **P/E (trailing): 14.9×** (5-yr avg 18.7×, 3-yr avg 17.5×). Textron Inc. trades at 14.9× trailing earnings, well below its own five-year average of 18.7×: cheap by its own standards.

- **Free-cash-flow yield: 5.6%** (5-yr avg 6.0%). Free cash flow equals 5.6% of the market value, in line with its five-year average of 6.0%. Above 5% is generally attractive.
