Valuation

P/E Price-to-earnings ratio: how many years of profit does the stock cost? The lower, the cheaper the valuation. No earnings means no P/E.

10.3

Forward P/E P/E based on expected earnings for the next 12 months instead of past earnings — analysts' bet on the future.

10.1

PEG P/E divided by expected earnings growth: puts valuation in relation to growth. Around 1 is considered fair, well above that is pricey.

3.0

P/B Price-to-book ratio: market value relative to book equity.

1.2

P/S Price-to-sales ratio: market value divided by annual sales. Important for companies that aren't (yet) profitable.

1.1

EV/EBITDA Enterprise value including debt (EV) relative to operating profit before depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) — more comparable than P/E because debt counts too. Extreme values arise when EBITDA is near zero.

0.0

Price/FCF Market value divided by free cash flow: how many years of freely available cash does the stock cost? More honest than P/E because cash flow is harder to dress up.

8.0

Profitability

Gross Margin Gross margin: what's left of sales after only direct production costs are deducted — the product's pricing power.

63.9%

EBIT Margin EBIT margin: operating profit as a percentage of sales — the earning power of the core business before interest and taxes.

11.1%

Net Margin Net margin: what's left of sales as profit after ALL costs, interest, and taxes.

8.7%

Return on Equity Return on equity: how much profit does the company generate per year on shareholders' equity?

12.8%

Return on Assets Return on assets: how much profit the company generates from its total assets (equity and debt combined).

4.0%

Balance Sheet & Safety

Equity Ratio Equity ratio: equity as a share of total assets. The higher, the more resilient the balance sheet.

30.6%

Debt/Equity Leverage ratio: financial debt divided by equity. Under 1 is generally seen as solid; negative values mean negative equity.

0.5

Altman Z Edward Altman's bankruptcy early-warning score: under 1.8 = danger zone, over 3 = safe. Values well above that mean a very resilient balance sheet.

Dividend Per Share (TTM) Sum of dividends paid per share over the last 12 months.

15Years

Increase Streak How many years in a row the dividend has been raised — the gold standard for dividend payers.
