Is Vulcan Materials' industry expected to grow? Or is there an opportunity to expand the business' product line in the future? Factors like these will boost the valuation of Vulcan Materials. If investors know Vulcan will grow in the future, the company's valuation will be higher. The financial industry is built on trying to define current growth potential and future valuation accurately. All the valuation information about Vulcan Materials listed above have to be considered, but the key to understanding future value is determining which factors weigh more heavily than others.

The market value of Vulcan Materials is measured differently than its book value, which is the value of Vulcan that is recorded on the company's balance sheet. Investors also form their own opinion of Vulcan Materials' value that differs from its market value or its book value, called intrinsic value, which is Vulcan Materials' true underlying value. Investors use various methods to calculate intrinsic value and buy a stock when its market value falls below its intrinsic value. Because Vulcan Materials' market value can be influenced by many factors that don't directly affect Vulcan Materials' underlying business (such as a pandemic or basic market pessimism), market value can vary widely from intrinsic value.

Please note, there is a significant difference between Vulcan Materials' value and its price as these two are different measures arrived at by different means. Investors typically determine if Vulcan Materials is a good investment by looking at such factors as earnings, sales, fundamental and technical indicators, competition as well as analyst projections. However, Vulcan Materials' price is the amount at which it trades on the open market and represents the number that a seller and buyer find agreeable to each party.
