Track FIX free→Comfort Systems USA grew revenue from $1.83B to $2.87B in one year. Earnings per share rose from $4.09 to $10.51 in the same period. The backlog increased from $5.22B to $12.45B, showing strong future demand. The company also raised dividends steadily to $0.80 per share.
The stock is selling off sharply with an 18.6% drop from its high. Guidance is soft despite recent beats. Profit margins or cash flow could weaken, hurting growth and dividend plans.
The price is about 20% above our fair value of $1423 and 29% below the Street median. Analysts expect 42% revenue growth, which is priced in. Our view is more cautious on valuation and growth sustainability.
