Wärtsilä Oyj Abp leads structurally, with profitability as the clearest single gap between the two profiles. ITT still has the edge on growth, which keeps the comparison from looking entirely one-sided. The market setup is currently leaning toward ITT, which does not confirm the structural lead. That leaves a split case: the structural lead stays with Wärtsilä Oyj Abp, but the market is not currently confirming it.
The comparison is based on similar long-term financial trajectories, not sector labels. Peer scores are normalised within each company's primary universe (ITT: Russell 1000, WRT1V.HE: STOXX 600).
Profitability still does most of the heavy lifting in this comparison. The overall score gap is 19 points in favour of Wärtsilä Oyj Abp.
Both operate in: Specialty Industrial Machinery
This comparison is based on industry proximity, not on functional trajectory similarity. ITT and WRT1V.HE share the same industry classification.

Score differences across key dimensions.
Left means cheaper relative valuation. Higher means stronger structure.
Wärtsilä Oyj Abp still looks stronger, and the price setup does not materially undermine that lead.
Valuation position uses peer-relative PE percentile (idx_pct_pe) where available.

Capital efficiency adds support, with a 88-point ROIC advantage.
ITT still pushes back on growth, with a 54-point revenue-growth advantage that keeps the read from becoming one-way.
The profitability edge is decisive, but growth still pushes back — the result holds, but not without a real counterweight.

AssetNext scores reflect each company's structural position within its functional peer group — not a ranking against all stocks simultaneously. Peers are identified by similarity across eight financial dimensions, including revenue growth trajectory, margin structure, capital intensity, and earnings stability. A score of 75 means the company ranks in the top quartile within its own peer group, not the entire market.
Four dimension scores drive the overall peer score: Growth (revenue trajectory and expansion dynamics), Quality (margin structure and capital efficiency), Valuation (peer-relative pricing on standard multiples), and Stability (earnings consistency and financial predictability). Each dimension is scored 0–100 relative to the peer group, then combined into an overall peer score using equal weighting.
Because scores are peer-relative, the same company can have slightly different scores in different index universes. On comparison pages, both companies are shown within their shared peer universe wherever possible — so the scores are directly comparable. The peer basis is stated on each score card.
Scores are recalculated periodically as underlying financial data is updated. All analysis is descriptive and rule-based — AssetNext describes structural realities and never issues buy, sell or hold recommendations.
