IFF PEG Ratio Analysis

The PEG ratio divides a stock’s price-to-earnings ratio by its expected earnings growth rate, so a 0.21x value means the current 0.21x is well below 1x — often interpreted as the stock being inexpensive relative to its projected growth.

Against sector peers, this 0.21x sits far under the sector median of 0.90x, placing the company in the 19th percentile, meaning most peers have a higher PEG. The metric is stable over the last 8 quarters, with the most recent historical values at 0.21x, 0.19x, and 0.21x; the quarter-over-quarter change is +10.5%, while the year-over-year change is not available. This combination of a low, stable PEG suggests limited downside from valuation compression, but the recent +10.5% rise, while still very low, points to a slight repricing rather than a sustained deterioration. For risk, the low level signals growth is well supported by earnings expectations, but the stable trend means there is no momentum-driven opportunity here. The metric supports the overall NEUTRAL verdict: a cheap-looking valuation alone does not justify a bullish stance when the trend is flat and the stock is not moving toward tighter or looser pricing.
