What Is Return On Invested Capital?
什麼是投資資本回報？
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%.
沒有背景的收益數據不清楚，很難作為交易決定的依據。投資資本回報率(ROIC)通過衡量企業相對於投資資本的年度稅前利潤，幫助過濾噪音中的信號。一般來說，較高的ROIC意味著公司的成功增長，也是未來每股收益較高的跡象。第三季度，BuzzFeed的ROIC為-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.
重要的是要記住，ROIC評估的是過去的業績，而不是用作預測工具。這是衡量一家公司近期表現的一個很好的指標，但沒有考慮到可能在不久的將來影響收益和銷售的因素。
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.
ROIC是比較類似公司資本配置有效性的有力指標。相對較高的ROIC表明，BuzzFeed的運營效率可能比業內其他公司更高。如果公司以目前的投資資本水準產生高利潤，其中一些資金可以再投資於更多資本，這通常會帶來更高的回報，並最終實現每股收益(EPS)的增長。
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.
對於BuzzFeed，負的ROIC比率為-3.58%，表明管理層可能沒有有效地配置他們的資本。有效的資本配置是一個積極的指標，表明一家公司將獲得更持久的成功和有利的長期回報；隨著時間的推移，糟糕的資本配置可能會拖累公司的業績。
