At the close on 2026-10-13, ADT traded at $6.61, near the low end of its 52-week range of $6.03 to $8.89. FairStock calculates a P/E of 9.18, a P/B of 1.39, EV/EBITDA of 5.08, and a free cash flow yield of 27.7% on $1.6B of trailing free cash flow. Its Graham Number is $8.76, leaving a 24.54% margin of safety. Those are cheap-looking statistics, but the market is not handing them out without reason. The operating record is steady but not exciting. In fiscal 2025, the year ended 2025-12-31, revenue was $5.1B and net income was $596.0M. In fiscal 2024, revenue was $4.9B and net income was $501.1M, while fiscal 2023 revenue was $4.7B and net income was $463.0M. That shows modest top-line growth and better profit growth over the two years. More recently, in fiscal Q2 2026, the quarter ended 2026-06-30, revenue was $1.3B and net income was $153.8M, down from $165.2M in fiscal Q2 2025. FairStock's Lynch category is STALWART, based on its rules from filed annual results. The balance sheet is the main problem. FairStock shows debt-to-equity of 2.24, an Altman Z-score of 0.17, ROCE of 5.18%, and ROE of 17.21%, which looks leveraged. The Piotroski F-score is 5/9 and the FairStock score is 59/100. Free cash flow and the 3.19% dividend yield are attractive, but until debt falls and net income stabilizes, this looks like a cheap but financially fragile security business rather than a high-quality compounder.
In plain English: ADT sells security alarms, smart-home systems, and related services to homes and businesses. The company produces a lot of cash and its stock price looks somewhat cheap compared with its profits and cash flow, but sales are barely growing, recent profits slipped, and it carries a heavy debt load. Overall, the numbers look mixed rather than clearly strong or clearly weak.
