If you believe HCA’s lower multiples and stronger margin profile can persist despite its missing quality data, then HCA looks attractive relative to GVA because it is priced at 14.5x earnings and 5.4x EV/EBITDA versus GVA’s 37.8x and 22.4x.
HCA appears underpriced versus GVA on every major valuation multiple provided, especially P/E and EV/EBITDA. The implied price of $1,071.26 is far above the current $410.54, suggesting the market is applying a much lower multiple to HCA than GVA benchmark.
