To quote Buffett, 'Ships will sail around the world but the Flat Earth Society will flourish. There will continue to be wide discrepancies between price and value in the marketplace...' One flawed but reasonable way to assess how sentiment around a company has changed is to compare the earnings per share (EPS) with the share price.

Trian Investors 1 was able to grow EPS by 14% in the last twelve months. This EPS growth is significantly lower than the 20% increase in the share price. So it's fair to assume the market has a higher opinion of the business than it a year ago.
