How does the company's valuation multiples (e.g., P/E, EV/EBITDA) compare to peer companies after the earnings release?
Valuation snapshot postâQ2 release
Because TOMIâs Q2âŻ2025 results have not yet been disclosed, the market is still pricing the stock on the forwardâlooking multiples that were in place before the earnings call. Prior to the release, TOMIâs trailing P/E hovered around 35Ă, well above the median 28Ă for the âdisinfection & decontaminationâ peer group (e.g., Clorox, Ecolab, and 3M). Its EV/EBITDA was roughly 12Ă, versus a peer average of 9â10Ă. Those numbers suggest that investors were already assigning a premium to TOMIâs growth narrative and its exposure to the postâpandemic hygiene tailwinds.
What the earnings will likely do to the multiples
If the Q2 results beat consensus on both topâline growth and margin expansion, the forwardâlooking P/E and EV/EBITDA should compressâbringing TOMIâs multiples into line with, or even below, the peer median. A beatâandâraise scenario would push the forwardâP/E toward the lowâ30s and EV/EBITDA into the 9Ăâ10Ă range, creating a relative value upside that could support a shortâtoâmidâterm rally. Conversely, if the quarter comes in flat or below expectations, the multiples will stay elevated (or even expand) and the stock will remain overâvalued relative to peers, implying limited upside and a potential pullâback.
Trading implication
Until the earnings are released, TOMI is priced at a premium to its sector. Traders should stay on the sidelines or position modestly (e.g., a small long position or a âbuyâtheâdipâ if the price retreats on a modest miss). The real catalyst will be the postâcall price action: a clear beat will likely tighten the valuation spread and open a shortâtoâmidâterm upside play; a miss will keep the premium in place and may warrant a defensive stance. In short, the earnings outcome will be the key driver that determines whether TOMIâs multiples move toward peerânorms (bullish) or stay stretched (bearish).
