Low PEG Stocks: Cheap Relative to Their Own Growth (2026)

Profitable, cash-generating US companies trading cheaply against their own growth rate — PEG below 1.5, computed from filings rather than analyst estimates. 157 companies qualify today — top 25 below, recomputed nightly from SEC filings.

A low P/E can simply mean a company is shrinking. PEG — the P/E divided by the growth rate — asks the better question: is the stock cheap relative to how fast it is actually growing? Here PEG is computed as trailing P/E ÷ 5-year revenue CAGR, both taken straight from SEC-filed income statements; we deliberately do not use the vendor PEG field, which bakes in forward analyst estimates. To keep the list honest, it requires positive free cash flow, at least 7 profitable years of the last 10, and a P/E under 35, and it excludes the near-zero-base-year growth spikes that make a few names look artificially cheap. A low PEG is a starting question — always check whether the growth is durable before treating it as a value.
