Specialty Business Services, equal-weighted, based at 200 S&P 500, same base, same start trailing 12-month earnings per share rising falling

Both lines start at 200 in the same week, so the distance between them is the whole story: the industry line is an equal-weighted index of its 30 companies. The bars underneath are trailing 12-month earnings per share, one bar per reported quarter, each member rebased to 100 at the start and the industry taking the median — so a price line pulling away from flat bars is a re-rating, not earnings. A bar turns red when that figure is lower than the quarter before. Rules are fixed and applied identically everywhere on this site: ahead by 5% or more over three months, or behind by 20% or more over a year while earnings grew 20% or more. Hover any point to read both values and the gap. This is a description of what the numbers did, not advice.

02 · sector relative strength, before individual stocks

Is Specialty Business Services outperforming S&P 500?

Specialty Business Services has outperformed S&P 500 by 9.1% over the last 52 weeks. Over 13 weeks the gap is a lead of 5.4%. 12 of 30 covered companies currently beat the S&P 500 on Mansfield relative strength, so leadership inside the sector is selective. BUUU Group Limited is the strongest against the sector itself at +166.1%.

The central tension: the companies with the most scale are not necessarily the companies creating the most change.

Start with scale. Then earnings trajectory. Then business quality. Only after those three agree should price leadership carry much weight.

Bottom line

Specialty Business Services has outperformed S&P 500 by 9.1% over 52 weeks and 5.4% over 13 weeks. 12 of 30 covered companies beat the S&P 500 on Mansfield relative strength, while 10 of 30 beat the sector itself. Cintas Corporation leads with revenue of $11,264 million, based on 21 of 30 comparable companies through Jun 2026.

4-Factor Sector Score

An additive sector-relative research score. The four displayed point contributions always equal the total: Growth & earnings (35), Capital efficiency (25), Valuation (20), and Relative strength (20). Missing or stale evidence is absorbed inside the affected factor, never applied as a hidden adjustment.

Growth & earnings · 35%Capital efficiency · 25%Valuation · 20%Relative strength · 20%
ABM Industries Incorporated has the strongest current balance of earnings trajectory, business quality, valuation and price confirmation, with 85.3% evidence confidence.
CBIZ, Inc. looks inexpensive relative to peers or its own history, but its earnings trajectory has not yet earned the valuation signal.
CBIZ, Inc. has stronger price confirmation than earnings confirmation; that is a research prompt, not permission to chase.
How this score is built, and what the marks mean

Missing observations are not scored as bad. Their missing weight lowers confidence and pulls the final score toward neutral. PEG is not shown when the ratio cannot mean anything: the company must be making a profit, its price-to-earnings must be positive, and its three-year earnings growth must fall between 5% and 60%. Dividing a price multiple by a loss, or by growth measured off a tiny base, produces a number that looks precise and tells you nothing. Under relative strength, one mark per week shows the last 12 weeks: a mark is filled where the company led S&P 500 by 5% or more over the 13 weeks ending that week, which is the same test used everywhere on this site. Price stage places the company on the same six-step curve the sector itself is placed on — basing, turning, breaking out, leader, fading, asleep — read from how many weeks running it has led S&P 500 and whether that lead is widening or shrinking. It describes where the PRICE stands, not the earnings trajectory and not a recommendation, and it is left blank for a company whose weekly history is too short or too stale to read.

Market action

BUUU Group Limited has the strongest one-year price move in Specialty Business Services at +489.9%. It also leads on Mansfield relative strength against the S&P 500 at +175%. 12 of 30 covered companies are above zero on that measure. Every line covers 314 weekly closes through 2026-09-16.

Price and relative strength

Every company, the sector's own index and S&P 500 all start level on the left edge of the window, so only the distance between the lines counts — the highest line has risen the most since then, and the chart at the top of this page is drawn the same way. It opens on one year; the buttons beside it stretch that to three or five.

Revenue Scale & Growth Durability

Cintas Corporation has the highest Revenue among the 30 Specialty Business Services companies compared here, at $11,264 million. Global Payments Inc. is next at $10,232 million. Resolute Holdings Management, Inc. has the highest Revenue growth at 82.2%, so level and change sit with different companies. 21 of 30 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Jun 2026.

What the numbers say: Cintas Corporation is the scale leader at $11,264 million, 10.1% ahead of Global Payments Inc.. Resolute Holdings Management, Inc.'s growth is 82.2% from a $767 million base, with 9 reported observations in the 20-quarter window. Treat the growth leader as an acceleration candidate, not as equally proven scale.

LeaderCintas Corporation · $11,264 million
Gap10.1% versus #2 · Global Payments Inc.
Persistence8/8 recent comparable periods
Coverage21/30 companies · 513 observations

Investor read: Cintas Corporation is the scale benchmark; Resolute Holdings Management, Inc. is the acceleration watch. Promote the challenger only if growth persists and converts into margin and returns.

This conclusion weakens if: Cintas Corporation's growth falls below Resolute Holdings Management, Inc.'s for two consecutive comparable reports while operating margin also compresses.

Revenue is compared on a common reported-currency basis. Growth is year-on-year, so seasonality does not masquerade as progress.

Investor read: Copart, Inc. sets the level benchmark; use the change leader as an inflection watch only after another comparable report confirms it.

This conclusion weakens if: The next two comparable reports reverse the current margin change signal.

Operating margin compares operating profit with revenue. Improvement is measured in percentage points, not percentage growth.

Profit Scale & Acceleration

Cintas Corporation has the highest Net profit among the 30 Specialty Business Services companies compared here, at $1,999 million. Thomson Reuters Corporation is next at $1,711 million. ABM Industries Incorporated has the highest Profit growth at the 100% top of the scoring scale, so level and change sit with different companies.

What the numbers say: Cintas Corporation leads with $1,999 million of TTM profit, 16.8% above Thomson Reuters Corporation. ABM Industries Incorporated shows ≥100% on the scoring scale (101.3% uncapped) growth from a $159 million profit base. Compare the size of the base and persistence before ranking acceleration above profit scale.

LeaderCintas Corporation · $1,999 million
Gap16.8% versus #2 · Thomson Reuters Corporation
Persistence8/8 recent comparable periods
Coverage21/30 companies · 514 observations

Investor read: Cintas Corporation sets the level benchmark; use the change leader as an inflection watch only after another comparable report confirms it.

This conclusion weakens if: The next two comparable reports reverse the current profit growth signal.

Net profit is the residual after operating costs, interest and tax. Growth off a loss or near-zero base is excluded from the fastest-grower rank.

Return On Capital Employed

Copart, Inc. has the highest ROCE among the 30 Specialty Business Services companies compared here, at 18.9%. RELX PLC is next at 9.3%. Cass Information Systems, Inc. has the highest ROCE change at +1.6 percentage points, so level and change sit with different companies. 30 of 30 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Jun 2026.

What the numbers say: Copart, Inc. leads ROCE at 18.9%, 9.6 percentage points above RELX PLC. Cass Information Systems, Inc. has the strongest latest improvement at +1.6 percentage points. Read the leader beside the density of its reported history: a sparse high return is a candidate; a repeated high return is evidence of durability.

Investor read: Copart, Inc. sets the level benchmark; use the change leader as an inflection watch only after another comparable report confirms it.

This conclusion weakens if: The next two comparable reports reverse the current roce change signal.

ROCE asks how much operating return the business earns on the capital employed. Direction matters, but a single exceptional year should not be mistaken for durability.

Valuation Against Growth & Quality

Maximus, Inc. has the lowest PEG among the 30 Specialty Business Services companies compared here, at 0.29×. ABM Industries Incorporated is next at 0.38×. Global Payments Inc. has the lowest P/E at -21.2×, so level and change sit with different companies. 12 of 30 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Mar 2026.

What the numbers say: Maximus, Inc. has the lowest comparable PEG at 0.29×, 23.7% below ABM Industries Incorporated. Only 12 of 30 companies have earnings and growth steady enough for the ratio to mean anything, so no broad “cheapest stock” conclusion is defensible unless the current multiple, own-history position and growth durability agree.

LeaderMaximus, Inc. · 0.29×
Gap23.7% versus #2 · ABM Industries Incorporated
Persistence0/8 recent comparable periods
Coverage12/30 companies · 80 observations

Investor read: Treat valuation as permission to investigate, never as a standalone reason to buy.

This conclusion weakens if: The next two comparable reports reverse the current p/e signal.

PEG is shown only when earnings are positive and three-year EPS growth is between 5% and 60%. It is recomputed consistently as the trailing P/E divided by that growth rate — reported earnings, never an expected-earnings multiple. On Indian companies it is shown only where the two data feeds agreed. Where any of that fails the ratio is left out rather than printed: a P/E divided by a loss, or by growth measured off a tiny base, is a number that looks precise and means nothing.

What can make this comparison misleading?

This Specialty Business Services comparison names 5 specific ways its own evidence can mislead, all listed below. 1 of the 30 companies reports on an older date than the sector's freshest reporters, so its rank is marked stale. A high growth rate can still be a low-base artefact.

Keep these limits visible

  • A high growth rate can be a low-base artefact. The page keeps level and change separate for that reason.
  • A high ROCE can be temporary or flattered by a small capital base. Read it beside margin, cash conversion and reinvestment.
  • The 4-Factor Sector Score ranks research priority, not portfolio action. Management quality, catalysts and risks need equally fresh evidence before capital is deployed.
  • An “all companies” line chart preserves completeness, but rank changes should be checked against reporting dates before drawing a conclusion.
  • 1 company has an older fundamental reporting date than the sector’s freshest reporters; its rank carries a stale marker.

How was this comparison built?

This comparison is built from the reported filings of 30 Specialty Business Services companies, normalized to a common $ scale and a shared quarter axis of up to 20 quarters each. Fundamentals run through Jun 2026 and market data through 2026-09-16. A second data feed fills gaps only after identity and scale reconciliation, and missing observations are never interpolated.

Specialty Business Services company comparison FAQs

These 22 answers restate the Specialty Business Services comparison above in question form. Every one is computed from the same 30 companies and the same reported filings as the rankings and charts, current through Jun 2026. Price and relative-strength answers run through 2026-09-16. Nothing here is estimated, and none of it is a recommendation.

Is the Specialty Business Services sector outperforming S&P 500?

Specialty Business Services has outperformed S&P 500 by 9.1% over 52 weeks and 5.4% over 13 weeks. 12 of 30 covered companies beat the S&P 500 on Mansfield relative strength, while 10 of 30 beat the sector itself.

Which Specialty Business Services company is largest by revenue?

Cintas Corporation leads with revenue of $11,264 million, based on 21 of 30 comparable companies through Jun 2026.

Which Specialty Business Services company is growing fastest?

Resolute Holdings Management, Inc. has the fastest current revenue growth at 82.2%, across 20 of 30 comparable companies.

Which Specialty Business Services company has the strongest 4-Factor Sector Score?

ABM Industries Incorporated ranks first at 63.2/100 with 85.3% evidence confidence. The score prioritizes research; it is not a buy recommendation.

Which Specialty Business Services company has the lowest comparable PEG?

Maximus, Inc. has the lowest comparable PEG at 0.29, among 12 of 30 companies whose earnings and growth are steady enough for the ratio to mean anything.

How much history does this Specialty Business Services comparison include?

The page compares up to 20 reported quarters per company for fundamentals, returns and valuation, ending Jun 2026. Missing observations remain blank rather than being estimated.

How is the 4-Factor Sector Score calculated?

The four visible contributions add directly: growth and earnings up to 35 points, capital efficiency up to 25, valuation up to 20, and relative strength up to 20. Missing or stale evidence moves only the affected contribution toward neutral.

Which Specialty Business Services company is the biggest?

Cintas Corporation is the largest, with trailing-twelve-month revenue of $11,264 million, ahead of Global Payments Inc. at $10,232 million. That covers 21 of 30 companies with comparable reporting through Jun 2026.

Which Specialty Business Services company has the best profit margins?

Copart, Inc. has the highest operating margin at 37.5%, from 27 of 30 comparable companies. First Advantage Corporation shows the biggest recent improvement, at +6.6 percentage points. A high margin matters most when it is holding or rising, not when it is peaking.

Which Specialty Business Services company makes the most profit?

Cintas Corporation earns the most, at $1,999 million of trailing-twelve-month net profit, from 21 of 30 comparable companies. ABM Industries Incorporated has the fastest profit growth at the ≥100% scoring cap, though growth off a small or recovering profit base overstates how much has actually changed.

Which Specialty Business Services company earns the highest return on capital?

Copart, Inc. leads on return on capital employed at 18.9%, across 30 of 30 companies. Read it beside the length of its reported history: a high return that repeats for years is evidence of a durable business, while a single high reading can be a small capital base or one good year.

Which Specialty Business Services stock is the cheapest?

On PEG — where a LOWER number is cheaper — Maximus, Inc. screens cheapest at 0.29×. Only 12 of 30 companies have earnings and growth steady enough for the ratio to mean anything, so this is not a sector-wide "cheapest stock" verdict. Cheap on a multiple is a reason to investigate, never a reason to buy on its own.

Is the Specialty Business Services sector beating the market?

Specialty Business Services has outperformed S&P 500 by 9.1% over the last 52 weeks and 5.4% over 13 weeks, measured on an equal-weight index of its current members. Inside the sector, 12 of 30 covered companies are beating the market on their own. Sector strength does not transfer evenly to every stock in it.

Which Specialty Business Services stock has the strongest price momentum?

BUUU Group Limited has the strongest relative strength against S&P 500. Relative strength answers last, after growth, quality and valuation: price can move well before the fundamentals confirm it, and sometimes without them confirming at all.

Which Specialty Business Services company scores highest for research priority?

ABM Industries Incorporated scores 63.2 out of 100 with 85.3% evidence confidence, from 21.4 points on growth and earnings, 11.1 on capital efficiency, 15.4 on valuation and 15.3 on relative strength. This ranks what deserves work next. It is not a buy recommendation, and management quality, catalysts and risk still need separate research.

How many Specialty Business Services companies does this comparison cover, and over what period?

It compares 30 listed companies over up to 20 reported quarters of fundamentals, ending Jun 2026, plus weekly price and relative-strength history. Membership is the full sector list — nothing is dropped for having thin data.

What is the total market cap of the Specialty Business Services sector?

The 30 Specialty Business Services companies on this page carry $335,452 million of combined market value. Cintas Corporation is the largest at $79,924 million, about 24% of the sector's total on its own. Market value moves with price, so this reading is dated 2026-09-16.

What is the Specialty Business Services sector's P/E ratio?

The median price-to-earnings ratio across the 30 Specialty Business Services companies on this page is 30.3×, measured on the 26 that report a comparable figure. A sector-level history for this multiple is not held here, so this is a cross-section of today, not a comparison with the sector’s own past. Figures are as of 2026-09-16.

How is the Specialty Business Services sector performing?

12 of the 30 covered Specialty Business Services companies are beating S&P 500 on Mansfield relative strength. The sector itself is 9.1% ahead of S&P 500 over 52 weeks on an equal-weight index of its current members. Readings are as of 2026-09-16.

How many Specialty Business Services stocks are listed in the US?

This comparison covers 30 listed Specialty Business Services companies in the US, each above the size floor the site applies. The full ranked list is on this page, with reported fundamentals through Jun 2026. Membership is the full industry list — nothing is dropped for having thin data.

Why are some values on this page blank?

A blank means that company did not report a comparable figure for that period, so nothing is shown. Missing observations are never interpolated, carried forward, or replaced with a similar-looking accounting line, and a company with missing evidence has its research score pulled toward neutral rather than being scored as bad.

Is this investment advice?

No. Every figure here is a deterministic calculation from reported company filings and market data, published for research. It contains no recommendation to buy or sell any security, does not account for your circumstances, and is not a substitute for advice from a licensed adviser.
