Fundamentals

Each ratio reads FY2025 figures against the latest price, graded so the quality shows at a glance.

P/E ratio Weak
63.4x

At 63x, the price is steep relative to profit; the stock leans heavily on growth that has yet to arrive.

Share price divided by earnings per share: what you pay for each $1 of yearly profit. Roughly 15 to 25 is typical, above 40 is richly priced, and negative means the company is losing money.

Dividend yield Fair
1.84%

A 1.8% yield is modest: a small income on top of whatever the share price does.

The yearly dividend as a percent of the share price: the cash income each share pays out. Around 2 to 6% is healthy; above roughly 8% often signals the payout may be cut.

Profit margin Weak
2.9%

A 2.9% margin is thin; little of each revenue dollar survives as profit.

The share of revenue left as profit once every cost is paid. Above 15% is strong; below 5% leaves little cushion against a bad year.

Return on equity Strong
31.2%

A 31.2% return on equity is strong; the company compounds owners' capital well.

Profit earned on each dollar of shareholder equity: how well the company compounds its owners' capital. Above 15% is strong.

Return on assets Strong
10.5%

A 10.5% return on assets is strong; the company squeezes good profit from its assets.

Profit earned on each dollar of assets: how efficiently the whole asset base is used. Above 8% is strong.

Debt-to-equity Fair
1.96

At 1.96, the company carries a moderate, manageable amount of debt.

Total liabilities divided by shareholder equity: how heavily the company leans on borrowing. Below 1 is conservative; above 2 is highly leveraged.

Current ratio Weak
0.97

At 0.97, short-term assets fall short of short-term bills; liquidity is tight.

Current assets divided by current liabilities: whether short-term resources cover short-term bills. Above 1.5 is comfortable; below 1 is tight.

Revenue growth Fair
+5.0%

Revenue grew 5.0% from the prior year: steady, modest expansion.

Change in annual revenue from the prior fiscal year: whether the top line is expanding. Above 10% is strong growth; below 0 means revenue is shrinking.

Earnings growth Strong
+17.1%

Net income grew 17.1% from the prior year: strong profit expansion.

Change in annual net income from the prior fiscal year: whether profit is expanding. Above 10% is strong; below 0 means profit is falling.
