If you believe VMC can sustain its stronger margin profile and 7.1% revenue growth while maintaining low leverage, then holding or accumulating on weakness makes sense because the business quality is clearly better than SWK even though the stock is not deeply cheap versus the P/E-implied value.
On a P/E basis, VMC’s current price of $303.19 is above the implied price of $281.31, suggesting about 7.2% downside from this framework. The broader valuation picture is mixed because VMC trades at premium absolute multiples, but those multiples are supported by stronger operating economics than SWK.
