What would COGNEX CORP have to report for its valuation to change?
At $53.99, with a 9.0% required return and a 18× earnings multiple in 5 years, earnings per share must grow about 34.7% a year, to $4.62. On that path the next quarter needs diluted EPS near $0.13, against $0.10 in the quarter ended Sep 28, 2025.
Compare buying at the last close now with waiting for results: if the report moves the growth the price requires, the entry price you would accept changes with it.
