Executive Summary

Our model assigns METTLER TOLEDO INTERNATIONAL INC/ a Hold rating, with a composite score of 55.1/100 and 3 out of 5 stars. Ranked #1255 of 7,333 stocks, MTD presents a mixed quantitative picture — neither compelling enough to initiate new positions nor weak enough to warrant selling. Investors already holding may consider maintaining their position while monitoring for changes in the factor profile.

Business Quality

With a quality score of 60/100, MTD shows adequate but unremarkable business quality. The company reports a return on equity of -429.3% (sector avg: -1.9%), gross margins of 59.4% (sector avg: 44.1%), net margins of 20.6% (sector avg: 1.0%). This suggests the company generates acceptable returns but may lack the competitive positioning or operational efficiency to stand out from peers.

Intrinsic Valuation

MTD's value score of 65/100 indicates the stock is fairly valued based on its current fundamentals. Key valuation metrics include a P/E ratio of 35.22x, an EV/EBITDA of 30.74x. At this level, neither a clear bargain nor overpriced, the stock's attractiveness depends more on forward growth expectations and qualitative factors.

Capital Reinvestment

With an investment score of 40/100, MTD exhibits moderate growth-oriented spending. Key growth metrics include revenue growth of 8.8% vs. a sector average of 6.7% and a return on assets of 21.4% (sector: 0.9%). The company appears to be balancing growth investments with capital returns, though the pace of investment may not be enough to accelerate top-line growth meaningfully.

Market Momentum

MTD is currently showing below-average momentum at 47/100, which may indicate weakening institutional interest or negative sentiment shifts. Revenue growth stands at 8.8% year-over-year, while a beta of 1.15 reflects its sensitivity to broader market moves. Investors should note that declining momentum can precede further price weakness, though contrarian opportunities sometimes emerge at these levels.

Balance Sheet Health

MTD shows good financial stability with a score of 80/100. Key stability metrics include a beta of 1.15. This suggests manageable leverage and moderate price volatility, making it appropriate for investors seeking a balance between growth potential and capital preservation.

Institutional Risk Profile

The short interest score of 52/100 for MTD suggests somewhat elevated bearish positioning by institutional traders. With a $25.3B market cap (large-cap), METTLER TOLEDO INTERNATIONAL INC/ may experience above-average volatility. Investors should consider whether the short thesis has merit or if it creates a potential short-squeeze opportunity.

Sector Benchmark Analysis

METTLER TOLEDO INTERNATIONAL INC/ is a large-cap company in the Manufacturing sector, ranked #0 of 50 in its sector (100th percentile) and #1255 of 7,333 overall (83rd percentile). Key comparisons include ROE of -429.3% trailing the -1.9% sector median and operating margins of 25.4% above the 2.5% sector average. This top-quartile standing reflects exceptional competitive strength relative to Manufacturing peers.
