The Fundamentalytics view

Next results ~November 25, 2026 (estimated)

Embecta Corp.'s trailing-twelve-month revenue fell 7.6% year on year, with a free-cash-flow margin of 16.2%. Where it stands out: free-cash-flow margin of 16.2% ranks 1 of 13 health care supplies companies we cover. Where it lags: long-term debt as % of assets of 104.0% ranks 9 of 9 health care supplies companies we cover.

Our discounted-cash-flow model values the business at ~$0.0 per share in the base case (—–$7.3 across growth scenarios) — model values under stated assumptions, not a price target.

Current signal Free cash flow diverging from earnings: TTM free cash flow grew 24.4% while net income grew 4.7%: a 20pp divergence.

Fundamentalytics rating

model v1.6 · 2026-11-03

Not rated: held for review: our cash-flow value ($0.02) was left out of our combined valuation (it is 0.00x the share price, outside the 0.2-5x range we accept), so it can't be the basis of a rating.

Our value per share comes from a discounted-cash-flow model of Embecta Corp.'s free cash flow after stock-based pay ( $72.9M, FY2026 Q3 TTM, with after-tax interest added back): growth for five years as below (the first two years from forecasts, guidance and the company's record), fading to 2.5%, discounted at 8.5%, then cash added and debt and other claims subtracted. These are model values under stated assumptions, not price targets or recommendations.

The inputs used by the models below have passed source checks. Individual model values are available below and in the interactive valuator. Their differences are shown explicitly; the platform combined value and recommendation remain withheld.

Valuation models

We value Embecta Corp. as an operating company, with every model that fits that kind of business. Cost of equity 8.9%: the 10-year Treasury yield (4.9%) plus a beta of 0.88 times a 4.5% equity risk premium.

Value per share by model

Cash-flow model (DCF) Free cash flow to the firm (after stock pay, with after-tax interest added back), grown then faded to 2.5%, discounted at 8.5% as the firm rate, less debt and other claims. ~$0.0 Left out: out of range vs price (0.00x)
Forward price-to-earnings vs peers Next year's consensus earnings per share times peers' typical (harmonic-mean) forward price-to-earnings. Uses analysts' consensus estimates (third-party data), not our forecasts. ~$27 ~$23–$45 Included
Residual income Book value plus the present value of returns above the cost of equity, fading over ten years. — Does not apply: This model is withheld pending its input or assumption review.
Justified price-to-book Book value times (return on equity - growth) / (cost of equity - growth): steady-state returns. — Does not apply: This model is withheld pending its input or assumption review.

Different models fail in different ways, so where several apply we average them rather than trust one. Peer-based models compare Embecta Corp. with Health Care Supplies in our coverage, using third-party market data.

Moat

70 /100

Moderate moat

How hard Embecta's competitive advantage looks for rivals to wear away, judged from 5 years of its own filings: returns on capital, pricing power, profit durability, cash conversion and discipline.

  • Returns on capital 10 / 20

    Net income has been a median 6.9% of total assets over 5 years.

  • Pricing power 18 / 20

    Gross margin has been a median 66.4%, moving by 3.8 percentage points (standard deviation) across 5 years.

  • Durability 16 / 20

    Operating margin has been a median 19.2%; its worst year was 14.9%.

  • Cash conversion 16 / 20

    Free cash flow was positive in 5 of 5 years, at a median 12.0% 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 (75 before it).

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

Forecasts and guidance

Next results: November 25, 2026, before the open. Analysts expect revenue of $270m and EPS of $0.29 (range $0.28 to $0.31) for the quarter.

Source: SEC EDGAR XBRL company facts (US and foreign periodic filings); column headings link to the filing. EBITDA is operating income plus depreciation and amortisation. Free cash flow is cash from operations minus capital spending. Growth is left blank when last year's figure was a loss or under 2% of revenue. Share counts and EPS are restated for stock splits. A dash means the company didn't report the figure.
