Buda Juice Inc. (BUDA) — VMCI valuation read

Buda Juice Inc. (BUDA) carries a VMCI composite of 25/100, 25 points below the Consumer Defensive sector median of 50. Among mid-cap names, that gap places BUDA in the bottom third on the five-pillar weighting (Value 35%, Quality 30%, Integrity 15%, Growth 12%, Risk 8%).

The BUDA insider tape has been silent for the past 30 days on Form 4. Where executives neither buy nor sell, the bull and bear cases lean harder on filings cadence and the next earnings line.

**Investor frame.** Value reads BUDA trades at 22.0x earnings, 22% above the Consumer Defensive median of 18.0x, which compresses or extends through the 11.0x EV/EBITDA versus a Consumer Defensive 12.0x. Quality: ROIC of 18.0% sits 8.0pp above the Consumer Defensive median (10.0%). Risk: net debt to EBITDA of 0.1x leaves covenant headroom, the line to track on Buda Juice Inc.'s next 10-Q.

BUDA fell 2.5% over the trailing 7 days, with a -4.2% read on a 30-day basis.
