BuzzFeed's Return on Invested Capital Insights
ROIC is a powerful metric for comparing the effectiveness of capital allocation for similar companies. A relatively high ROIC shows BuzzFeed is potentially operating at a higher level of efficiency than other companies in its industry. If the company is generating high profits with its current level of invested capital, some of that money can be reinvested in more capital which will generally lead to higher returns and, ultimately, earnings per share (EPS) growth. BuzzFeed (NASDAQ:BZFD) brought in sales totaling $103.73 million during Q3 according to data provided by Benzinga Pro. However, earnings decreased 14.47%, resulting in a loss of $26.99 million. In Q2, BuzzFeed brought in $106.76 million in sales but lost $23.58 million in earnings.

What Is Return On Invested Capital?
什么是投资资本回报？
Earnings data without context is not clear and can difficult to base trading decisions on. Return on Invested Capital (ROIC) helps to filter signal from noise by measuring yearly pre-tax profit relative to invested capital by a business. Generally, a higher ROIC suggests successful growth of a company and is a sign of higher earnings per share in the future. In Q3, BuzzFeed posted an ROIC of -3.58%.
没有背景的收益数据不清楚，很难作为交易决定的依据。投资资本回报率(ROIC)通过衡量企业相对于投资资本的年度税前利润，帮助过滤噪声中的信号。一般来说，较高的ROIC意味着公司的成功增长，也是未来每股收益较高的迹象。第三季度，BuzzFeed的ROIC为-3.58%。
It is important to keep in mind that ROIC evaluates past performance and is not used as a predictive tool. It is a good measure of a company's recent performance, but does not account for factors that could affect earnings and sales in the near future.
重要的是要记住，ROIC评估的是过去的业绩，而不是用作预测工具。这是衡量一家公司近期表现的一个很好的指标，但没有考虑到可能在不久的将来影响收益和销售的因素。

ROIC是比较类似公司资本配置有效性的有力指标。相对较高的ROIC表明，BuzzFeed的运营效率可能比业内其他公司更高。如果公司以目前的投资资本水平产生高利润，其中一些资金可以再投资于更多资本，这通常会带来更高的回报，并最终实现每股收益(EPS)的增长。
For BuzzFeed, a negative ROIC ratio of -3.58% suggests that management may not be effectively allocating their capital. Effective capital allocation is a positive indicator that a company will achieve more durable success and favorable long-term returns; poor capital allocation can be a leech on the performance of a company over time.
对于BuzzFeed，负的ROIC比率为-3.58%，表明管理层可能没有有效地配置他们的资本。有效的资本配置是一个积极的指标，表明一家公司将获得更持久的成功和有利的长期回报；随着时间的推移，糟糕的资本配置可能会拖累公司的业绩。
