Price vs Fundamentals
The stock rose 39.94% over the last year. Revenue grew 47.44% over the trailing twelve months. Operating margin moved from 41.17% to 45.87%.
The stock is trading toward the richer end of its historical P/FCF range (84th percentile) while business metrics are improving. More of the upside is already embedded in the multiple now.
Operating margin is at 45.87% — continued expansion would be needed to justify the premium. Revenue growth of 47.44% is encouraging, but any deceleration puts the stretched multiple at risk. This read changes if revenue, margins, and cash flow continue to improve faster than expected — in that case the richer multiple could still prove conservative.
