Valuation
Valuation signal
Fairly valuedClosing price of 11 Nov 2026, used by the daily score.
A fair value is not meaningful here, so the signal follows the valuation grade.
Valuation metrics
The model puts the fair value at more than four times the share price. That says more about the assumptions than about the company, so a fair value is not meaningful here and the valuation relies on the P/E and the other metrics.

Company outlook mixed
Share price after the results: −3.0%Del Monte raised the outlook for its smaller segment (sales to about 650 million dollars from 625 million, EBITDA to about 45 million from 35 million) but kept the full year outlook unchanged and lowered banana margin guidance from 3 to 4% to 2 to 3% due to weather and cost pressures.
“We are increasing our outlook for net sales to approximately $650 million and adjusted EBITDA to approximately $45 million up from our previous expectations of $625 million and $35 million respectively.”The outlook is not part of the score and not a recommendation to buy or sell.
