Is Fixstars expensive compared with its peers?
On forward p/e it trades at 25.1× against a peer median of 14.7×, 5th most expensive of 13 in its peer set. For today's price to make sense, revenue must grow about 27% a year for seven years (Req g). Recent delivered growth is +11%, so the hurdle is +16 pp: the price needs faster growth than the company has been delivering — of companies that just grew 25–50% a year, 93.8% slowed down over the next four years.
How has Fixstars stock performed?
Over six months to 6 Nov 2026 the shares returned +23.0% against -2.3% for the median peer; over one year -19.9%.

How these numbers are made. Returns are close-to-close in local currency. Revenue growth and margins are trailing twelve months. Req g is the revenue growth that today's enterprise value requires for seven years at the company's own cost of capital; Delivered g is what it actually grew; the gap is the hurdle (honest precision about ±8 points, so read the ranking more than the decimal). No fair values, price targets or analyst ratings are shown, by design. Method and validation.
