Why it matters for the long term

Over 10-20 years, what drives a share up is the growth of its profits (EPS) + reinvested dividends. The P/E tells you whether you are paying a lot or a little for that growth. In short: rising EPS + reasonable P/E + growing dividend = good long-term candidate.

About Ecolab, Inc.

Ecolab makes and sells the cleaning chemicals, water-treatment systems, and infection-prevention products used behind the scenes by restaurants, hotels, hospitals, food and drink factories, and heavy industry around the world. Its business model is built on proprietary chemical formulas paired with dosing equipment and service contracts, so customers pay Ecolab on an ongoing basis to keep their water clean, their kitchens sanitary, and their equipment running efficiently. That recurring, service-heavy setup is why the company can command higher margins than a typical chemical maker.
