Taking full advantage of the stock market and investing with confidence are common goals for new and old investors alike.

Achieving those goals is made easier with the Zacks Style Scores, a unique set of guidelines that rates stocks based on popular investing methodologies, namely value, growth, and momentum. The Style Scores can help you narrow down which stocks are better for your portfolio and which ones can beat the market over the long-term.

Why Investors Should Pay Attention to This Value Stock

Different than growth or momentum investors, value-focused investors are all about finding good stocks at good prices, and discovering which companies are trading under what their true value is before the broader market catches on. The Value Style Score utilizes ratios like P/E, PEG, Price/Sales, and Price/Cash Flow to help pick out the most attractive and discounted stocks.

Enterprise Products Partners (EPD)

Enterprise Products Partners operates a comprehensive midstream energy network that spans natural gas, NGLs, crude oil, petrochemicals, and refined products. EPD achieved record volumes in natural gas processing and crude oil equivalent pipeline volumes, supported by new processing plants. Projects like “Bahia pipeline” and Frac 14 reinforce EPD's commitment to further expand its NGL value chain.

EPD sits at a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy), holds a Value Style Score of B, and has a VGM Score of B. Compared to the Oil and Gas - Production Pipeline - MLB industry's P/E of 11.5X, shares of Enterprise Products Partners are trading at a forward P/E of 10.6X. EPD also has a PEG Ratio of 1.3, a Price/Cash Flow ratio of 7.9X, and a Price/Sales ratio of 1.2X.

A company's earnings performance is important for value investors as well. For fiscal 2025, five analysts revised their earnings estimate higher in the last 60 days for EPD, while the Zacks Consensus Estimate has increased $0.05 to $2.91 per share. EPD also holds an average earnings surprise of 1.8%.
