Babcock International, ISIN: GB0009697037, the British defense and engineering group, has just reached a new 52-week high of €9.65, marking an impressive rally. Over the past year, the stock has gained nearly 60%, and in the last four weeks alone, it is up more than 11%.

Analysts remain mostly bullish: 88% of nine covering firms rate it as Buy or Outperform, and the average price target is 8.30 GBP (about €9.75), slightly above the current price.

However, some caution is warranted:

  • The price/earnings ratio (P/E) is around 29, making the stock expensive compared to peers.

  • Cash flow growth lags behind the share price, with the price/cash flow ratio (P/CF) rising to 15.45.

  • The reference price is the official closing price on May 3, 2025.

  • The 10% threshold is calculated as:
