Millerknoll Inc scores 34 for management and 34 for moat. The management score rests on a return on invested capital of 4.7% and a gross margin of 38.8% — figures that describe capital earning less than it costs to employ. Debt sits at 1.34x equity.
Three independent anchors set the price worth paying. Growth is modelled at 9.3% a year, the rate measured from the filings. The exit multiple assumed is 18.6x. That produces an intrinsic value of $15.71, a 10-CAP price of $27.93 and a payback time price of $34.01, with the value zone set at the highest of the three, $34.01. Today's price of $20.15 sits inside that zone.
The price sits inside the value zone, but the business scores 34 for moat and 34 for management. Cheap and good are different tests, and only one of them is passed here.
