PG vs WMT
Procter & Gamble Company (The) Common Stock vs Walmart Inc. Common Stock. Scores ACCE, valorisation, rentabilité et croissance côte à côte.
$PG wins this comparison, though neither stock looks cheap right now.
Valuation is the clearest gap. $WMT trades at a trailing P/E of 38.3 and an EV/EBITDA of 19.27, while $PG sits at 21.9x earnings and 14.66x EBITDA. More striking: ACCE's 6-model fair value puts $WMT at $47.11, implying 56.0% downside from its current $107.15. $PG's fair value of $115.56 suggests 20.4% downside from $145.27, which is still a caution flag, but far less extreme.
Quality separates them further. $PG scores 85/100 on quality versus $WMT's 58. That shows up in the fundamentals: $PG's net margin is 18.4% against $WMT's 3.0%, and $PG's ROE of 30.3% beats $WMT's 22.3%. The 3.0% dividend yield on $PG also dwarfs $WMT's 0.9%, giving shareholders something tangible while they wait.
Neither company is growing earnings right now. $PG's earnings fell 15.5% year-over-year, $WMT's dropped 9.1%. $WMT's 5.9% revenue growth is the better top-line story, but it doesn't justify a valuation premium this wide over a business with six times the net margin.
$PG is the pick: better quality, better value, better income.
