Sunbelt Rentals Holdings Inc is scored 66 for moat and 76 for management. The management score rests on a return on invested capital of 7.8% and a gross margin of 38.5% — figures that describe a business earning a respectable return on what it employs. Debt sits at 1.37x equity.
The price anchors are built on deliberately conservative assumptions. Growth is modelled at 7.0% a year, the rate measured from the filings. The exit multiple assumed is 13.9x. That produces an intrinsic value of $22.39, a 10-CAP price of $90.71 and a payback time price of $99.46, with the value zone set at the highest of the three, $99.46. Today's price of $75.61 sits inside that zone.
A business scoring this well, trading inside its value zone, is the combination the framework exists to find — which is also the reason to check why the market disagrees. A margin of safety score of 15 describes the cushion, not the certainty.
