Over the past 30.4 years, a hypothetical investment of $100 in KNX would have grown to $4380, compared to $2006 for the S&P 500. That represents an annualized return of 13.2% vs 10.4% for the index — confirming KNX as a market-beating investment and the kind of quality company where buying during 200-week moving average touches has historically been rewarded.
Free cash flow has been declining at a -100% compound annual rate. A deteriorating cash flow trend warrants extra scrutiny — the stock may be cheap for a reason.
