Fundamentals · FY2027 Valuation

Standard valuation multiples from SEC-reported GAAP financials (trailing twelve months), each compared to the median for Food & Agriculture. We use reported GAAP, not forward or adjusted earnings, so our figures can sit higher than sites that do — especially for companies with falling profit. Relative context — not a target price or investment advice.

P/E
60.75
▲ pricier than Food & Agriculture (median 20.2)
how it's calculated
P/E = price ÷ earnings per share
$130.50 ÷ $2.15 = 60.75
Based on GAAP trailing-twelve-month financials (SEC filings) and the latest close. Other sites may show a different multiple when they use forward (projected) or non-GAAP adjusted figures instead of reported GAAP — for a company with volatile profit those can differ in either direction from the GAAP figure shown here.
P/B
2.42
▲ pricier than Food & Agriculture (median 1.8)
how it's calculated
P/B = price ÷ book value per share
$130.50 ÷ $53.83 = 2.42
Based on GAAP trailing-twelve-month financials (SEC filings) and the latest close. Other sites may show a different multiple when they use forward (projected) or non-GAAP adjusted figures instead of reported GAAP — for a company with volatile profit those can differ in either direction from the GAAP figure shown here.

Two things to watch per trade: the disclosure lag (how many days passed before the trade was made public) and the price move in that window (how the stock moved during those non-public days). A sell followed by a price drop, or a buy followed by a rise, means well-timed trading — visible here in the open. Note: the Score measures how notable a trade is, not whether it made money — the price move is shown for context and isn't part of it.

Corporate insiders · SEC Form 4 Insider Activity

What the company's own officers and directors did in SJM — open-market purchases and sales from SEC Form 4 filings (option exercises, grants and tax withholding are excluded). This is context for the congressional activity above, never a buy/sell signal, and the two datasets are kept separate on purpose. Does convergence mean anything? →

Insider open-market trades

Of the congressional trades in SJM, 8 coincided with corporate insiders moving the same way within 60 days, and 2 with insiders moving the opposite way. This is co-occurrence only — whether it carries any edge is tested honestly on the convergence page.

About this data. Sourced from official House Clerk and Senate eFD financial disclosures (Senate via a maintained community mirror — see project documentation). Transaction amounts are reported as ranges, not exact figures. Interest scores, consensus labels, and backtested performance are proprietary analytical calculations based on public data and are not investment advice. Backtested performance is a hypothetical simulation, not actual portfolio performance.
