Price-to-Earnings of 11.2x: Is it justified?

Cementos Molins closed at €38.00 while trading on a P/E of 11.2x that screens as low next to both the Spanish market and its Basic Materials peers.

The P/E ratio compares the current share price with earnings per share. For a construction materials group like Cementos Molins, that metric helps you see how much investors are paying for each euro of profit in a sector that can be tied to the economic cycle.
