If you believe MAC can materially improve profitability and reduce leverage without sacrificing growth, then the stock may deserve patience; otherwise, the data favor caution because MAC trades at richer multiples than PAYC despite weaker margins, losses, and much higher leverage.
MAC’s current price of $25.46 implies a -49.9% downside to the $12.77 P/S-implied value, indicating the market is already pricing in a severe discount relative to PAYC-based valuation framework. The disconnect is reinforced by MAC trading above PAYC-implied range and well above the DCF range, despite weaker fundamentals than PAYC.
