FundSpec fundamental metrics
Each metric is computed from the company's filings and ranked against every company FundSpec covers; the percentile is the share of covered companies with a lower value.
Leverage
| Metric | Value | Percentile | What it measures |
|---|---|---|---|
| Debt/Assets | 0.42 | 82nd | Calculated as the ratio of Short-Term Debt + Long-Term Debt / Total Assets. The higher the ratio, the higher the degree of leverage, and consequently, financial risk |
| Debt/Equity | 0.84 | 73rd | Calculated as the ratio of Total Liabilities / Shareholders' Equity. The ratio indicates how much debt a company is using to finance its assets relative to the amount of value represented in shareholders’ equity |
| Degree of Financial Leverage | 1.19 | 73rd | Calculated as the ratio of Percentage change in EPS / Percentage change in EBIT. A higher degree of financial leverage means that the company has more volatile EPS. |
| Long Term Debt/Long Term Capital | 0.45 | 56th | Calculated as Long-Term Debt / (Long-Term Debt + Shareholders' Equity). The ratio is an indicator of the company's leverage |
| Long Term Debt/Total Capital | 0.45 | 61st | Calculated as (Short-Term Debt + Long-Term Debt / (Short-Term Debt + Long-Term Debt + Shareholders' Equity). The ratio is an indicator of the company's leverage |
Profitability
| Metric | Value | Percentile | What it measures |
|---|---|---|---|
| Gross Margin Pct | 62.7% | 76th | Calculated as the ratio of Revenue - Cost of Goods Sold (COGS) / Revenue. The gross margin represents the percent of total sales revenue that the company retains after incurring the direct costs associated with producing the goods and services sold by a company. |
| Operating Margin Pct | 44.2% | 95th | Calculated as the ratio of (Revenue - (Cost of Goods Sold + Labour + Sales, General & Administrative)) / Revenue. Operating margins are important because they measure efficiency. The higher the operating margin, the more profitable a company's core business is. |
| PreTax Margin Pct | 37.3% | 91st | Calculated as the ratio of (Gross profit - (Operating Expense + Interest Expense)) / Revenue. The pretax profit margin enables profitability to be compared across companies with significant differences in size, scale, capital structure and tax rates. |
| Return on Assets Pct | 7.7% | 87th | Calculated as the ratio of Net Income / Total Assets. It is an indicator of how efficient the company is at using its assets to generate earnings. |
| Return on Equity Pct | 16.0% | 80th | Calculated as the ratio of Net Income / Shareholders' equity. It is a measure of how much profit a company generates with the money shareholders have invested. |
| Return on Invested Capital Pct | 9.2% | 70th | Calculated as the ratio of (Net Income - Dividends) / (Debt + Equity). It is a measure of how efficient the company is at allocating the capital under its control to profitable investments. |

| Operating Cashflow Pct Growth 5 year CAGR (FY) | 5.2% | 55th | The Operating Cashflow compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over the past 5 years |
