nVent Electric plc (NVT) has a Lemma Quality Score of 6.1 out of 10 as of October 18, 2026, which reads as solid quality. A solid reading is a respectable business with clear strengths and at least one area that falls short of the best in its field. Five pillars feed it, and every one of them is computed from what the company reported rather than from its share price.
Ranked with the 270 Industrials companies Lemma publishes, the score sits at the 62nd percentile, in the upper half of the group, short of the top quarter. For reference, the middle of the group scores 5.6 and a company needs 6.5 to reach its top quarter, which leaves nVent Electric plc above the median.
Profitability scores 5.9 out of 10, which reads as average. The median across 262 Industrials companies is 4.9, so nVent Electric plc is above its peers on this pillar and ranks at the 65th percentile. Profitability in the middle of the range is neither a moat nor a warning: margins and returns look like those of an ordinary business in this line of work.
Solvency scores 7.9 out of 10, which reads as strong. The median across 241 Industrials companies is 7.1, so nVent Electric plc is above its peers on this pillar and ranks at the 60th percentile. A high solvency score means leverage is modest relative to earnings and cash flow, which gives management room to act in a bad year.
nVent Electric plc’s growth score is 6.9 out of 10 (average). Against a median of 5.4 among 216 Industrials companies, that is well above the group and the 72nd percentile. A middling growth reading is typical of a mature company whose next step depends on reinvestment rather than on its market growing for it.
On efficiency, nVent Electric plc scores 4.4, an average reading. Its peers have a median of 6.2 across 264 Industrials companies, which places it well below them, at the 24th percentile. An average efficiency reading suggests the business turns its assets and earnings into cash at roughly the rate its sector does.
On predictability, nVent Electric plc scores 5.2, an average reading. Its peers have a median of 5.0 across 267 Industrials companies, which places it in line with them, at the 54th percentile. An average predictability reading means results have wobbled about as much as is normal for the sector.
This is a lopsided profile. Solvency scores 7.9 but efficiency only 4.4, a gap of 3.5 points, so the overall hides a business that is excellent in one respect and weak in another. A solvency lead means the balance sheet is the company’s strongest asset, a cushion that buys time when trading gets harder. An efficiency shortfall means profit is not turning into cash as readily as it could.
Of everything that could lift nVent Electric plc’s score, efficiency matters most. Bringing it up to the 6.2 median of Industrials companies would take the overall from 6.1 to roughly 6.4. All five pillars could be scored, so the overall uses the full set of weights out of 100: profitability 25, solvency 20, growth 20, efficiency 15, predictability 20.
These are the Industrials companies closest to nVent Electric plc in market value. Each has its own page scored on the same five pillars, so the comparison is like for like.
How much profit the company generates from its capital and sales.
The company’s ability to service debt and meet its obligations.
How fast revenue, earnings and cash flow are compounding.
How well assets and earnings convert into cash and output.
How stable and consistent results have been over time.
Each metric is scored from 0 to 10 against sector-aware benchmarks, where higher is better. Metrics roll up into five pillars, and the pillars combine into the overall score using the weights shown. Sector-sensitive metrics are judged relative to peers in the same sector.
This score is a systematic, backward-looking read of reported fundamentals. It does not judge valuation, management quality, competitive moat, or future prospects, and can be distorted by one-off items or unusual accounting. Treat it as a starting point, not a recommendation.

No. Quality and valuation are separate questions, and a good business at the wrong price is still a bad purchase. Score the business here, then price it with a DCF you control.
