CFA level 3 Mock afternoon session question set 4 part A and C

CFA Level III Equities
#1

Hi Guys,

Quick question on the 2025 Mock 2 question set 4 part A and C.

Part A they chose Company 2, on the basis that both P/E and PEG ratio is lower than industry. I am not sure why they are comparing PEG as well.

Part C. They chose company 3 despite the negative growth. I thought deep value is company with extremely low multiples which are not justified with the prospect of the company. Sure a low forward P/E multiple with a low growth forecast is justified?
