S&P Global Inc. (SPGI) has solidified its dominance in financial data and analytics through the transformative $44 billion IHS Markit acquisition in 2022, sparking a 42% YoY revenue explosion to $11.8 billion and fueling a 150% cumulative rise from 2016 to $14.2 billion in 2023. With over 80% recurring subscription revenue, scalability shines—revenue per employee rebounding 20% YoY in 2023, EPS up 112% since 2016, and analysts forecasting $18.9 billion by 2028 at a 10% CAGR. Free cash flow per share surged 125% to $17.86 amid recovering margins (gross at 69.3%, EBT rebounding to 40.6% projected), positioning SPGI for deleveraging, buybacks, and dividends despite post-merger debt.
Valuation looks compelling forward: trailing PE at 52.9x moderates to 24.8x on projected $16.55 EPS in 2026, with EV/FCF at 29.6x reflecting 20%+ margins and stock highs tripling since 2016 to $533 forecasted. Analyst targets skew bullish—34% upside to mean, 70% to high—backed by AI/ESG tailwinds and strong EPS/revenue correlations (r=0.92-0.95) decoupling from macro noise. Yet insider sells outpace buys 12:1, debt lingers at $13.1 billion, and regulatory risks loom, making this high-conviction hold a provocative bet on resilient growth amid underappreciated vulnerabilities.
