Why Trim is 79

Valuation against its own history

As of the last reported period (31 Mar 2026). P80 means the figure is higher than 80% of AEI.L’s past readings.

  • P/E2.8Γ—P23, good for this measure
  • Yield6.0%P52, neutral for this measure
  • DGR 5y2.2%P34, neutral for this measure
  • ROIC5.2%P73, good for this measure

Net debt / EBITDA is left out: for banks and insurers, debt is part of the business, so the ratio says little.
