To summarize, we found that Smith A O Corp ranked in the 44th percentile in terms of potential gain offered. We should note, though, that all scenearios modelled for this stock suggest it is overvalued. In terms of the factors that were most noteworthy in this DCF analysis for AOS, they are:
- Interest coverage, a measure of earnings relative to interest payments, is 38.18 -- which is good for besting 92.2% of its peer stocks (US stocks in the Industrials sector with positive cash flow).
- The business' balance sheet suggests that 4% of the company's capital is sourced from debt; this is greater than just 12.26% of the free cash flow producing stocks we're observing.
