Why now
Engineering & Construction · market cap $7.0b. 10% off the 52-week high of $57.93. 8 sell-side analysts rate this a Buy with a mean 1-yr target of $60.69 (implying +17% upside).
Moat
Turnaround / out-of-favor name — GAAP-unprofitable for now, so the durability case is forward-looking: it rests on a recovery (margin normalization, a cyclical upturn or restructuring) or an un-monetized asset (IP / network effects / first-mover position) rather than on current reported results.
Risk
Free cash flow is negative (-$330m) — capital raises or debt issuance likely required; dilution / leverage risk. Currently unprofitable (margin -12.8%) — path to GAAP profitability is the core thesis risk. ROE -74% is below the long-run sustainable threshold of ~10% — capital efficiency would need to improve for the equity base to compound at the market rate.
Horizon
1-3 yr $60.69 (8-analyst consensus) — catalyst-driven; binary events dominate. 5 yr $106.14 — requires the platform / technology to reach commercial scale. 10 yr $189.70 — return distribution heavily skewed.

Fluor Corporation (FLR): score, valuation & FAQ

Fluor Corporation (FLR) is a Engineering & Construction company that scores 27.9 out of 100 on the Bull Rankings quality-growth model — a weak 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 P/S (A), D/E (B+) and PEG (B+), while Rev (D+) and FCF (F) rate weaker.

Is FLR a good stock to buy?

Bull Rankings scores FLR 27.9 out of 100 on its quality-growth model, which is a weak reading. That is driven by P/S (A), D/E (B+) and PEG (B+). A score is a quantitative screen of Fluor Corporation'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 FLR score 27.9 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). FLR earns its highest marks on P/S (A), D/E (B+) and PEG (B+), and is held back by Rev (D+) and FCF (F). Each pillar is graded against sector-aware thresholds, then combined into the single 0–100 score.

Is FLR overvalued or undervalued?

We don't compute a reliable discounted-cash-flow value for FLR — typically because it is not yet consistently profitable or free-cash-flow positive — so its valuation rests on growth and price-to-sales rather than on earnings-based intrinsic value. Judge it on the trajectory of the business, not a single multiple.

What are the main risks of investing in FLR?

Free cash flow is negative (-$330m) — capital raises or debt issuance likely required; dilution / leverage risk. Currently unprofitable (margin -12.8%) — path to GAAP profitability is the core thesis risk. ROE -74% is below the long-run sustainable threshold of ~10% — capital efficiency would need to improve for the equity base to compound at the market rate.
