Economic Moat
Evidence of durable competitive advantage in the filed financials (10 years of history).
Profit margins and economic moats, explainedSome durable-advantage evidence, but not across the board — dig into which ingredient is weak and whether it's cyclical or structural.
15.4% average over the last 3 years
±4.1 pts around 16.4% across 10 years
grew in 8 of the last 9 year-over-year periods
positive in 10 of 10 years
7.0% latest fiscal year
A moat can't be proven by numbers alone — this scores the evidence a durable advantage leaves behind (pricing power, consistency, returns on capital), computed the same way for every stock. Pair it with the business overview before concluding anything.
Technical Analysis (Educational)
Technical analysis reads price and volume to judge momentum and timing. It complements the fundamentals above — it does not replace them. Here is what RBA's chart says today, with each tool explained.
Trend — moving averages. A moving average is the average closing price over a window, which smooths out daily noise. RBA trades near $84.27, below its 50-day average ($106.79) and 200-day average ($104.77). Price below both averages is a downtrend — momentum is against buyers for now.
Momentum — RSI. The Relative Strength Index runs 0–100 and measures how strong recent gains are versus losses. Above 70 is "overbought", below 30 "oversold". At 61 it is in neutral territory — neither stretched nor washed out.
MACD. MACD compares two moving averages to flag shifts in momentum. Its histogram is currently positive — short-term momentum is improving.
Volatility — ATR. Average True Range is the typical daily move. RBA's is $3.17 (~3.8% of price), so swings of about that size each day are normal — handy for setting a stop that isn't too tight.
Support & resistance. In the month to Jul 6, 2026, RBA found buyers near $103.74 (support) and sellers near $117.05 (resistance); its 52-week range then was $93.58–$119.58. A decisive break beyond either edge often marks the next move.
Volume. The latest session traded 0.3× the 20-day average — lighter than usual, so the move carries less conviction. Rising volume on up-days suggests real buying; on down-days, real selling.

Revenue Growth
4Y CAGR
34.2%
Revenue moved from $1.13B in 2016 to $4.59B in 2025, a 16.9% compound annual growth rate. The most recent year grew a steady 9.0% year over year. Slower, mature growth is common for established businesses.

$2.89B
Net Debt

Cash Flow Analysis
Operating CF
$978.20M
Free Cash Flow
$719.20M
FCF Margin

In the latest year RB Global Inc produced about $978.20M of operating cash flow and $719.20M of free cash flow after capital spending. That is a free-cash-flow yield of about 3.3% on today's price. Cash flow is what ultimately pays shareholders, so it is worth tracking over time.

EV / EBITDA

RBA trades at 47.5x trailing earnings (about 44.5x on estimated forward earnings), 4.7x sales, and 3.1x book value. Reverse-engineering today's price implies the market expects roughly 5.6% long-term free-cash-flow growth. That is a rich multiple that prices in a lot of future growth.

Educational scenario model, not a forecast or investment advice. It starts from the latest annual revenue in SEC filings. By default, growth is trailing revenue growth (held between 3% and 45% a year), the net margin is the latest one (held between 3% and 50%, so a loss-making company is modeled with a small profit), and the Base case P/E runs from 60% to 100% of today's. Carrying recent growth forward five years can miss badly in either direction. Outputs are only as good as the assumptions.
Bull Case
The case for RBA:
- A conservative balance sheet (debt/equity 0.4x) lowers risk.
Bear Case
The case against RBA:
- A rich 47.5x earnings multiple prices in a lot of growth.
- Our model's overall read is Weak (41/100).
Key Risks
Valuation risk — at 47.5x earnings, disappointing results could compress the multiple.
Market risk — sector rotation, the economic cycle, and broad sentiment move the stock regardless of fundamentals.
Investment Thesis
On balance, the fundamentals screen weakly: RB Global Inc is a large-cap industrials business growing at a mature pace, with modest profitability, and a sound balance sheet. It trades at 47.5x earnings, which our model scores Weak (41/100). Weigh this against your own goals and time horizon — this is educational information, not a recommendation.
