Fair

Across the nine graded ratios (FY2025 figures against the latest price), ESS’s fundamentals read as fair overall.

P/E ratio Fair
26.6x

At 27x, investors are paying up; a fair amount of future growth is already in the price.

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 Strong
3.71%

A 3.7% yield is a healthy, generally sustainable level of cash income.

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 Strong
7491.5%

A 7491.5% margin is strong; the company keeps a healthy slice of every revenue dollar.

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 Fair
12.7%

A 12.7% return on equity is respectable, in the normal range.

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

Return on assets Fair
5.3%

A 5.3% return on assets is reasonable for a company of this kind.

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

Debt-to-equity Fair
1.34

At 1.34, 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 No data
—

This company does not report a current-assets breakdown, so the ratio cannot be computed.

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 Weak
-8.6%

Revenue fell 8.6% from the prior year; the top line is contracting.

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 Weak
-13.4%

Net income fell 13.4% from the prior year; profit is shrinking.

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