This explanation uses an earlier data snapshot or evidence version. Review its generation date and the current figures, or refresh after signing in.
If you believe DVA can sustain its 15.0% operating margin and 23.0% ROIC despite 6.0x net debt/EBITDA, then the stock can justify a higher multiple because its profitability profile is far stronger than CVS’s.
On a P/E basis, DVA’s current price of $180.67 is far below CVS-implied value of $681.15, implying 277.0% upside from the stated multiple comparison. However, the valuation case is mixed because DVA already trades within its historical band and the DCF range is notably below CVS-implied level.
