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

Why now
Electronics & Computer Distribution · market cap $4.5b. Trading near 52-week high of $155.99 — momentum setup, limited technical margin of safety. 4 sell-side analysts rate this a Buy with a mean 1-yr target of $163.75 (implying +6% upside).
Moat
ROE 13% meets the long-run market sustainable threshold — solid but not differentiated; the durability comes from elsewhere. FCF converts 188% of net income — earnings translate cleanly into cash, a sign that working capital and capex are well-disciplined.
Risk
Trading within 1% of the 52-week high — limited technical margin of safety; a momentum reversal would test conviction. Net margin 2.5% is thin — operating leverage cuts both ways; input-cost inflation or pricing pressure hits the bottom line first.
Horizon
1-3 yr $163.75 (4-analyst consensus) — fundamentals + valuation re-rating. 5 yr $239.75 at ~9% CAGR — compounding case rests on the competitive position widening. 10 yr $355.65 if current growth sustains into durable earnings power.

Is NSIT a good stock to buy?

Bull Rankings scores NSIT 56.9 out of 100 on its quality-growth model, which is a middling reading. That is driven by P/E (B+). A score is a quantitative screen of Insight Enterprises, Inc.'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 NSIT score 56.9 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). NSIT earns its highest marks on P/E (B+). Each pillar is graded against sector-aware thresholds, then combined into the single 0–100 score.

Is NSIT overvalued or undervalued?

Based on $154.67, NSIT sits about 23% below our discounted-cash-flow fair value (a margin of safety) — the current price implies roughly -2% annual free-cash-flow growth over the next decade. It trades at a 22.9x× 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 NSIT?

Trading within 1% of the 52-week high — limited technical margin of safety; a momentum reversal would test conviction. Net margin 2.5% is thin — operating leverage cuts both ways; input-cost inflation or pricing pressure hits the bottom line first.
