| 90-day change | -5.5% |
| Forward EPS estimate | $25.28 |
Over the last 90 days, what analysts expect STRL to earn is materially lower (-5.5%). 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 fiscal-year roll fell inside this window: the forward horizon moved on to the next financial year, which shifts the earnings figure without any analyst changing their view. That step is excluded, so the number above covers the rest of the window rather than all of it.
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 →

Sterling Infrastructure, Inc. (STRL): score, valuation & FAQ
Sterling Infrastructure, Inc. (STRL) is a Engineering & Construction company that scores 71.1 out of 100 on the Bull Rankings quality-growth model — a solid, above-average 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 Rev (A), D/E (A-) and PEG (B+). On valuation, STRL sits about 141% above our discounted-cash-flow fair value — the current price implies roughly 41% annual free-cash-flow growth over the next decade.
Is STRL a good stock to buy?
Bull Rankings scores STRL 71.1 out of 100 on its quality-growth model, which is a solid, above-average reading. That is driven by Rev (A), D/E (A-) and PEG (B+). A score is a quantitative screen of Sterling Infrastructure, 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 STRL score 71.1 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). STRL earns its highest marks on Rev (A), D/E (A-) and PEG (B+). Each pillar is graded against sector-aware thresholds, then combined into the single 0–100 score.
Is STRL overvalued or undervalued?
Based on $516.81, STRL sits about 141% above our discounted-cash-flow fair value — the current price implies roughly 41% annual free-cash-flow growth over the next decade. It trades at a 37.2x P/E (graded C+). 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 STRL?
The bear case centers on the lofty valuation: a forward P/E of 39.5 implies the market is pricing in near‑term growth far above the historical norm, and the model’s reverse‑DCF demands a sustained 41% annual FCF growth—far beyond the 60.8% revenue surge and likely unsustainable. A slowdown in e‑commerce capex or a spike in construction costs would crush margins, and a breach of the 0.24 debt‑to‑equity ceiling would trigger a sell‑off. Confirmation would be a quarterly earnings miss that pushes the P/E above 45.
