At 29x earnings, the current multiple leaves limited room for execution misses or growth deceleration. Free cash flow declined 61% versus the prior year, cash generation momentum has weakened.
29.3x earnings, 193.4x FCF. Not cheap, the quality is already reflected in the price. Upside from here requires either margin expansion or growth re-acceleration, not just continuation.
