Sorted by gap size. The gap is the distance to the sector
median multiple, not expected return — and the widest gaps are usually the ones
the market has the best reason for. This order puts the most heavily discounted
names first, which is also where value traps live. The evidence order exists
because of that.

Why it's cheap
EV/EBIT of 7.8 against a Healthcare median of 23.1 — 66% below peers. Free cash flow yield 12.7%. Trading 70% below its all-time high set 2000-08-25.
Size of the gap
At the Healthcare median EV/EBIT of 23.1 instead of its current 7.8, and with earnings unchanged, the equity would be worth about 207% more. That is the size of the gap, not a forecast that it closes.
Business still intact
- ROIC 760% — still earning above a plausible cost of capital
- free cash flow positive
- Piotroski F-Score 7/9 — accounts improving year on year
- revenue compounding at 48% over three years
- net debt 0.5x EBITDA — balance sheet not forcing anything
What this can't see
- Why the market is discounting this — needs the filings and the news
- Whether earnings are about to fall and justify the current multiple
- Data warnings on this row — see caveats below
What the sell side says
Consensus strong buy from 11 analysts, mean target 20.82 USD, 109% above the current price. No revision activity in the last quarter.
Targets spread 96% of the mean — analysts disagree sharply, and consensus loses its information content when they do.
Implied upside of 109% is unusually high. The evidence runs the other way here: stocks with the most optimistic targets tend to underperform, because the optimism bias is real and priced-in slowly. Read this as a caution, not an opportunity.
Price target levels are shown as context only and
never feed the score. Targets are reached roughly half the time and the
most optimistic ones tend to underperform. Revision direction is the part
that carries information.

EV/EBIT of 6.0 against a Consumer Defensive median of 17.0 — 65% below peers. Free cash flow yield 6.6%. Trading 42% below its all-time high set 2025-04-23.
Size of the gap
At the Consumer Defensive median EV/EBIT of 17.0 instead of its current 6.0, and with earnings unchanged, the equity would be worth about 252% more. That is the size of the gap, not a forecast that it closes.
Business still intact
- ROIC 19% — still earning above a plausible cost of capital
- free cash flow positive
- Piotroski F-Score 7/9 — accounts improving year on year
- net debt 1.3x EBITDA — balance sheet not forcing anything
- Altman Z 3.4 — outside the distress zone
What this can't see
- Why the market is discounting this — needs the filings and the news
- Whether earnings are about to fall and justify the current multiple
- Data warnings on this row — see caveats below
What the sell side says
Consensus hold from 7 analysts, mean target 33.64 USD, 10% above the current price. No revision activity in the last quarter.
Targets spread 42% of the mean — analysts disagree sharply, and consensus loses its information content when they do.
Price target levels are shown as context only and
never feed the score. Targets are reached roughly half the time and the
most optimistic ones tend to underperform. Revision direction is the part
that carries information.
