Theme Valuation Map
Each bubble is a theme: the horizontal axis is median P/E (cheapness), the vertical axis median Piotroski F-score (fundamental quality). Top-left is cheap and high quality, bottom-right is expensive and weak.

Model Confidence Gauge
“Coverage” is how many companies a model could value; “Agreement” is how close the model’s fair value sits to the blended median. Higher on both means a more dependable model.

Datafin’s View
Cybersecurity rarely trades cheap; the valuation view looks for durable models at a price that still leaves room.
In a premium-priced theme, the point is to separate the platforms worth the multiple from the ones merely riding the trend.
This analysis is for informational purposes only and is not investment advice; it is a repeatable research starting point using the same rules.
How to Read the Models
The multiple models (P/E, EV/EBITDA, P/S) value each company at the theme peer-median multiple, so the fair value reflects cheap/expensive relative to peers.
The intrinsic models (Owner Earnings, FCF Yield) give an absolute reference based on cash and earnings power, independent of peers.
“Blended FV” is the median across these models; “Upside” is the gap to the current price.
