How to read this comparison

Up to eight covered companies in the same industry, largest market value first.

EV/EBITDA divides enterprise value (market value plus debt, minus cash) by EBITDA over the last twelve months. The peer median leaves out LW and stocks without a reading.

Each percentile compares a stock with its own weekly readings over the last five years, so 20 means its EV/EBITDA is above 20% of its own past readings. It needs at least 26 weeks of history. It is not a rank against the other stocks in this table.

Different growth rates, margins and financial risks can explain different multiples. Stocks without positive EBITDA have no reading.
