Pentair plc
At today's price, Pentair plc (PNR) is priced for +17.1% growth. boothcheck doesn't publish a fair value or a price target; it shows what the price assumes, so you can judge whether that bar is too high. Built from SEC EDGAR filings.
- The capital-allocation discipline is the through-line: Pentair has expanded its return on sales for 16 consecutive quarters (to 25% in Q1 2026), authorized a new $1.0 billion buyback, raised its dividend 8%, and commits to maintaining an investment-grade rating while paying down debt. That margin-and-return focus is what supports the valuation. - At about $74 the market pays a premium that only the growth-DCF frame reaches; the asset, earnings-power, and peer-multiple frames all read the stock
