Is Straits Trading expensive compared with its peers?
On ev / sales it trades at 2.2× against a peer median of 2.9×, 7th cheapest of 14 in its peer set. For today's price to make sense, revenue must grow about 1% a year for seven years (Req g). Recent delivered growth is +15%, so the hurdle is -14 pp: the price already allows for a slowdown.
How has Straits Trading stock performed?
Over six months to 6 Nov 2026 the shares returned -13.9% against -31.0% for the median peer; over one year -13.9%.

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.
