Price vs Fundamentals
The stock rose 24.09% over the last year. Revenue grew 4.93% over the trailing twelve months. Operating margin moved from 14.41% to 14.44%. Free cash flow grew 25.53% over the trailing twelve months.
The stock move broadly lines up with stronger business momentum, and the shares are still only around the 52nd percentile of their historical P/FCF range.
Operating margin is at 14.44%. Revenue grew 4.93% — this thesis depends on that trajectory holding. If revenue growth, margins, or free cash flow roll over while the stock keeps climbing, more of the move would be coming from multiple expansion than business progress.

Profitability & growth
Standard profitability metrics can be misleading for financial/insurance companies. GAAP requires unrealized investment gains/losses in net income (affecting ROE), and margins are blended across diverse business segments.
