Veralto is a high-quality, capital-light company with a strong moat, benefiting from secular trends like worldwide urbanization and water regulation. Management retains Danaher's successful M&A playbook, focusing on bolt-on acquisitions and steady, mission-critical recurring revenue streams. Fundamental business risk is low, but valuation risk is present; shares are slightly overvalued based on my DCF analysis, warranting a 'hold' rating.
VLTO's leadership in Water Quality and PQI segments, strategic acquisitions and growing dividends position it for sustained growth.
Although the revenue and EPS for Veralto (VLTO) give a sense of how its business performed in the quarter ended March 2025, it might be worth considering how some key metrics compare with Wall Street estimates and the year-ago numbers.
VLTO's first-quarter 2025 revenues rise 6.9% on a year-over-year basis.
