Why now
Scientific & Technical Instruments · market cap $4.1b. Down 40% from 52-week high of $48.20 — deep drawdown territory. PEG 0.86 — paying under fair value for the growth rate. 10 sell-side analysts rate this a Buy with a mean 1-yr target of $40.30 (implying +39% upside).
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 33% — top-decile capital efficiency. Either pricing leverage, low capital intensity, or aggressive buybacks; the durability story depends on which.
Risk
Down 40% from the 52-week high — the market is pricing in something the screen can't see; verify the bear case before sizing up.
Horizon
1-3 yr $40.30 (10-analyst consensus) — multiple re-rating thesis requires a catalyst. 5 yr $50.88 at ~12% CAGR — dividend + buyback compounding. 10 yr $65.25 if the moat survives secular pressure.

Vontier Corporation (VNT): score, valuation & FAQ

Vontier Corporation (VNT) is a Scientific & Technical Instruments company that scores 70.6 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 P/E (A) and PEG (B+). On valuation, VNT sits about 26% below our discounted-cash-flow fair value (a margin of safety).

Is VNT a good stock to buy?

Bull Rankings scores VNT 70.6 out of 100 on its quality-growth model, which is a solid, above-average reading. That is driven by P/E (A) and PEG (B+). A score is a quantitative screen of Vontier 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 VNT score 70.6 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). VNT earns its highest marks on P/E (A) and PEG (B+). Each pillar is graded against sector-aware thresholds, then combined into the single 0–100 score.

Is VNT overvalued or undervalued?

Based on $29.04, VNT sits about 26% below our discounted-cash-flow fair value (a margin of safety). It trades at a 10.3x× P/E (graded A). 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 VNT?

Down 40% from the 52-week high — the market is pricing in something the screen can't see; verify the bear case before sizing up.
