If you believe CRH can sustain its superior margins and growth while the market continues to value it near its historical and DCF range, then hold rather than chase APTV-implied upside because the $493.17 implied price is likely distorted by APTV’s weak earnings base.
On a relative basis, CRH looks inexpensive versus APTV on earnings and sales multiples, but APTV comparison is affected by APTV’s very high P/E of 78.5x and weak net income. CRH’s current price of $107.56 sits above the upper end of the DCF range midpoint and within the historical band, suggesting less obvious undervaluation than APTV-implied upside implies.
