L-3 Communications Holdings Inc. Quarterly Valuation – February 2015 $LLL
L-3 Communications Holdings Inc. is suitable for both the Defensive Investor and the Enterprising Investor. The Defensive Investor’s only concern is the low current ratio while the Enterprising Investor is concerned by the level of debt relative to the net current assets. As a result, all value investors should feel very comfortable proceeding to the next part of the analysis, which is a determination of the company’s intrinsic value.
From a valuation side of things, the company has grown its EPSmg (normalized earnings) from $7.38 in 2010 to only $8.08 for 2014. This demonstrated growth does not support the market’s implied estimate of 3.45% earnings growth. As a result, the ModernGraham valuation model returns an estimate of intrinsic value below the market price at this time, and the company appears to be overvalued by the market.
