If you believe ABT’s lower leverage and valuation discount deserve a rerating despite slower growth than GE, then hold or accumulate ABT because its P/E and P/S are meaningfully below GE while balance sheet risk is much lower.
ABT trades at 28.4x P/E versus GE at 44.2x and 4.2x P/S versus GE at 8.1x, suggesting ABT is valued at a material discount on earnings and sales. However, the headline upside to the provided implied price is based on a P/E re-rating, while the stock also sits well above the DCF range, which tempers the apparent discount.
