Reasonable Valuation
The Price-to-Earnings (P/E) ratio of 24.62 is within a reasonable range for the industry. The Price-to-Sales (P/S) ratio of 1.0 (TTM) suggests that the market values the company at one dollar for every dollar of revenue, which can be considered fair for a mature company in the logistics sector.
Strong Short-Term Performance
The stock has shown strong recent performance, with a 5-day return of 6.56% and a 1-month return of 10.71%, indicating positive momentum.
High P/E in recent quarters
Certain quarterly P/E ratios are significantly high (e.g., 89.3 for Q1 2025, 132.3 for Q3 2024), which could suggest overvaluation in the short term if earnings do not keep pace with price increases.
Negative EPS Surprise in 2024 Q1
There was a significant negative EPS surprise in Q1 2024 (-38.2%), where reported EPS was $0.50 against an estimate of $0.81. This indicates potential volatility in earnings and challenges in meeting expectations.
