Highlights

How we pick these

Strengths

  • Fast growth. Revenue grew 24.3% over the last 12 months, against a median of 6.5% for diversified support services companies we cover.
  • Growth speeding up. The growth rate is 4.5 points higher than a quarter earlier.
  • Shrinking share count. Diluted shares fell 7.1% in a year, so each share owns more of the business.
  • Estimates rising. Analysts' consensus for next year's earnings per share has risen 21.5% over 90 days.

Things to watch

  • Results due soon. Results are expected around 4 November; the share price can move sharply on the day.
  • Margins narrowing. Operating margin is down 7.6 points on a year ago.
  • Insiders selling. 10 insiders sold $18M of stock over the past 365 days and none bought (14% under pre-set trading plans).
  • Weak cash conversion. Free cash flow was 46% of net income over the last 12 months.
  • Heavily shorted. 16.1% of the shares available to trade are sold short (5.9 days of average volume to cover).

Not rated: only 1 valuation models apply; a rating needs 3.

Valuation models

We value Corecivic, Inc. as an equity reit, with every model that fits that kind of business. Cost of equity 8.6%: the 10-year Treasury yield (4.9%) plus a beta of 0.8 times a 4.5% equity risk premium.

Different models fail in different ways, so where several apply we average them rather than trust one. Peer-based models compare Corecivic, Inc. with equity REITs in our coverage, using third-party market data.

Moat

53 /100

Moderate moat

How hard Corecivic's competitive advantage looks for rivals to wear away, judged from 10 years of its own filings: returns on capital, pricing power, profit durability, cash conversion and discipline.

  • Returns on capital 3 / 20

    Net income has been a median 3.6% of total assets over 10 years.

  • Durability 10 / 20

    Operating margin has been a median 14.9%; its worst year was 5.9%.

  • Cash conversion 13 / 20

    Free cash flow was positive in 9 of 10 years, at a median 8.5% of revenue.

  • Discipline 20 / 20

    The diluted share count fell 15.1% over five years; stock-based pay has been a median 0.9% of revenue.

AI disruption exposure: Medium. In this industry, AI could change how the product is made or sold, without replacing the core asset. The score above includes a 5-point deduction for that exposure (58 before it).

A rules-based reading of reported figures, not a forecast and not investment advice. How the score is built: methodology.
