The analyst's take on Crane NXT, Co.
Crane NXT, Co. has grown revenue from $2.75B to $1.66B over the last 10 fiscal years, compounding about -10.8% a year. The most recent year was up 11.4%, so growth is actually accelerating.
Net margin sits at 8.8%, down 3.6 points year over year on a 42.5% gross margin. It carries about $1.14B of total debt.
At today's valuation the market is pricing in roughly -0.7% annual free-cash-flow growth — versus the -6.4% it actually delivered over the last five years, so the price already assumes a step-up from the recent record. The one thing worth a second look in the filings is receivables growing faster than sales.
