Model-generatedGenerated by the Bull Rankings model from this company's reported fundamentals, and checked against the figures shown above.

Why now
Commercial Services & Supplies · market cap $4.3b. 8% off the 52-week high of $99.28. Revenue growing +11%, comfortably above the S&P median.
Moat
Net margin 13% beats the market median by a meaningful margin — the company is keeping more of every revenue dollar than the average S&P constituent. ROE 16% sits above Buffett's preferred 15% threshold — the equity base is compounding at a rate the market struggles to discount accurately.
Risk
Mature compounder — the risk is paying up for quality at a moment when growth is decelerating. Watch for sequential revenue + margin trends; the inflection from "compounder" to "ex-compounder" is hard to spot until the multiple already started compressing.
Horizon
1-3 yr $104.98 (structural (no analyst coverage)) — fundamentals + valuation re-rating. 5 yr $153.71 at ~11% CAGR — compounding case rests on the competitive position widening. 10 yr $228.01 if current growth sustains into durable earnings power.

Over the last 90 days, what analysts expect BRC to earn is essentially unchanged. The estimate is derived from price and forward P/E captured at the same instant, so a moving share price does not move this number — only a changed forecast does.

A rising estimate means expectations are improving, not that the price has failed to keep up — and estimates get cut as readily as they get raised. It is not part of the Bull Rankings score. Biggest movers across the market →

Brady Corp (BRC): score, valuation & FAQ

Brady Corp (BRC) is a Commercial Services & Supplies company that scores 61.4 out of 100 on the Bull Rankings quality-growth model — a middling reading. The score blends three pillars — quality (durable returns, healthy margins, low leverage), growth (revenue and earnings), and value (valuation versus sector peers) — into one number, refreshed daily; it is a screen, not a buy recommendation.

Its strongest graded signals are D/E (A). On valuation, BRC sits about 7% below our discounted-cash-flow fair value (a margin of safety) — the current price implies roughly 6% annual free-cash-flow growth over the next decade.

Is BRC a good stock to buy?

Bull Rankings scores BRC 61.4 out of 100 on its quality-growth model, which is a middling reading. That is driven by D/E (A). A score is a quantitative screen of Brady Corp's fundamentals, not personalised financial advice — weigh it against your own time horizon and risk tolerance, and read the risk factors below before acting.

Why does BRC score 61.4 on Bull Rankings?

The quality-growth score blends three pillars — quality (returns on capital, margins, leverage, earnings quality), growth (revenue and earnings expansion), and value (valuation versus sector peers). BRC earns its highest marks on D/E (A). Each pillar is graded against sector-aware thresholds, then combined into the single 0–100 score.

Is BRC overvalued or undervalued?

Based on $91.29, BRC sits about 7% below our discounted-cash-flow fair value (a margin of safety) — the current price implies roughly 6% annual free-cash-flow growth over the next decade. It trades at a 21.1x P/E (graded B). Discounted-cash-flow estimates are sensitive to growth and discount-rate assumptions, so treat this as a cross-check, not a price target.

What are the main risks of investing in BRC?

Mature compounder — the risk is paying up for quality at a moment when growth is decelerating. Watch for sequential revenue + margin trends; the inflection from "compounder" to "ex-compounder" is hard to spot until the multiple already started compressing.
