Preferred P/E of 29.3x: Is it justified?
Based on current data, Société Anonyme des Bains de Mer et du Cercle des Étrangers à Monaco trades on a P/E of 29.3x, which sits well above the broader European hospitality sector while the share price is €135.
The P/E ratio compares the company’s share price to its earnings per share. For a hospitality group with casinos, hotels, and rental operations like Société Anonyme des Bains de Mer et du Cercle des Étrangers à Monaco, it offers a quick read on how much investors are paying for each unit of current earnings.
Here the picture is mixed. Earnings growth over the past year of 2.5% outpaced the wider hospitality industry at 2%, and the company reports high quality earnings. At the same time, net profit margins of 13.1% are lower than last year’s 14.3%, return on equity of 6.7% is described as low, and the company is trading above the future cash flow value estimated by the SWS DCF model at €21.43.
Compared with the European hospitality industry average P/E of 18.5x, Société Anonyme des Bains de Mer et du Cercle des Étrangers à Monaco is on a clearly richer multiple. However, that 29.3x is lower than the peer group average of 52.8x, which suggests the stock sits between broader sector pricing and a more expensive direct peer set.
