CRH's valuation appears fair, fundamentals are above averages and the outlook sends mixed signals.

Score change since last week

The score rose 2 points, mainly due to valuation and price changes. Price fell 1.7%, from $95.86 to $94.26. Reported EPS was unchanged, so the lower price improved valuation support.

Valuation and price changes added 2.4 points. The comparison uses the same available inputs on both dates. Displayed changes are rounded to whole points.

Valuation

Valuation stays neutral because earnings are difficult to compare across periods. Business trends, outlook and financial risk still contribute to the overall score.

Cash flow & growth

Business trends are strong. Over the past year: revenue +73.3%, earnings +49.3%, operating margin -0.1 percentage points. Free cash flow is 4.8% of revenue. The business score is 72/100. Growth, margins and cash generation drive the score. Missing or older data receives less weight.

Favorable scenario

Business trends and outlook support upside. Price history provides the reference because earnings are difficult to compare.

The calculation starts with the stock’s typical weekly price movements, adjusted for business performance and outlook. Unusually large jumps have less influence. The result is 18% upside, or about $104.49.

This is a scenario based on our model, not a forecast or probability.

Downside scenario

Historical price swings are the main risk driver, even without a sharp profit decline.

The stock’s historical price swings drive this figure; the separate operating stress is 25.6%. Price history and operating stress provide the reference because comparable earnings do not support a future PE target. Operating stress reflects revenue, earnings, margins, outlook and relevant debt exposure. The larger stress gives 25.7% downside, or about $65.79, with a 15% minimum.
