If you believe ADSK can sustain its higher growth and premium margins without further multiple compression, then hold rather than add aggressively because the current price already exceeds PCTY-implied range and the P/E-based implied value is materially lower.
ADSK trades at a richer valuation than PCTY on every provided trading multiple, yet the model still implies a downside to $159.90, or -35.8% from the current price of $249.08. The current price also sits above the top of PCTY-implied range, suggesting the market is paying up for ADSK’s higher growth and profitability profile.
