What Fluidra does

Spanish manufacturer of swimming pool and wellness equipment (pumps, filtration, covers, chemicals) sold globally.

Sells to pool builders, installers and distributors, but a large part of revenue comes from maintaining and upgrading pools already built, such as pumps, filters and chemicals, which is steadier than new construction. A 2018 merger with the US firm Zodiac Pool Solutions gave it a large North American business.

In one line: A pool-equipment leader like a smaller Pentair.

Questions

Who are Fluidra's main competitors?
Named competitors: Pentair (PNR), Hayward Holdings (HAYW), Zodiac Pool Solutions (private) (private or unlisted), Waterco (private or unlisted), Leslie's (private or unlisted). The cockpit's measured peer set (industry) also includes Thor Industries (THO), Asmodee (ASMDEE-B.ST), Mattel (MAT), Acushnet (GOLF), Polaris (PII), Yamaha (7951.T).
Is Fluidra expensive compared with its peers?
On forward p/e it trades at 14.9× against a peer median of 18.6×, 7th cheapest of 20 in its peer set. For today's price to make sense, revenue must grow about 5% a year for seven years (Req g). Recent delivered growth is +8%, so the hurdle is -3 pp: the price already allows for a slowdown.
How has Fluidra stock performed?
Over six months to 6 Nov 2026 the shares returned +4.4% against +2.2% for the median peer; over one year -18.6%.

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.
