Investors Met With Slowing Returns on Capital At Flowserve (NYSE:FLS)
Investors Met With Slowing Returns on Capital At Flowserve (NYSE:FLS)
If you're not sure where to start when looking for the next multi-bagger, there are a few key trends you should keep an eye out for. Ideally, a business will show two trends; firstly a growing return on capital employed (ROCE) and secondly, an increasing amount of capital employed. If you see this, it typically means it's a company with a great business model and plenty of profitable reinvestment opportunities. In light of that, when we looked at Flowserve (NYSE:FLS) and its ROCE trend, we weren't exactly thrilled.
如果不知道從哪裏開始尋找下一個多倍股,那麼有幾個關鍵趨勢您應該密切關注: 首先是資本的增長,資產回報率:它是什麼?資本使用率回報(ROCE)是什麼?ROCE 趨勢可以告訴我們什麼?比起 Enphase Energy,有更好的資本回報率選擇。在過去的五年中,該公司增加了 1,306% 的資本,而該資本的回報率保持穩定在 9.9%。這樣差的回報率現在並不令人信服,而且隨着資本的增加,很明顯企業並沒有將資金投入到高回報的投資中。如果您看到這篇文章並且發現公司投資資本回報率非常佳,那意味着該公司擁有出色的商業模式和充足的盈利再投資機會。然而,當我們看到福斯(紐交所:FLS)的資本回報率趨勢時,並不是很激動人心。
Understanding Return On Capital Employed (ROCE)

Just to clarify if you're unsure, ROCE is a metric for evaluating how much pre-tax income (in percentage terms) a company earns on the capital invested in its business. To calculate this metric for Flowserve, this is the formula:
如果您不確定什麼是資本回報率(ROCE),它是一個評估公司在其業務所投資的資本上賺取多少稅前收入的指標(以百分比計算)。計算福斯的ROCE,使用以下公式:
Return on Capital Employed = Earnings Before Interest and Tax (EBIT) ÷ (Total Assets - Current Liabilities)
資產僱用回報率(ROCE)是指企業利潤,即企業稅前利潤除以企業投入的總資本(負債加股權)。如果ROCE高於企業財務成本的承受能力,那麼企業就會創造出更多的價值。
0.12 = US$441m ÷ (US$5.1b - US$1.5b) (Based on the trailing twelve months to March 2024).
0.12 = 4.41億美元÷(51億美元-15億美元)在Elevance Health上,我們已經注意到的趨勢是相當令人放心的。數據顯示,過去五年資產回報率大幅提高至15%。投資所用資產的規模也增加了30%。這表明有很多機會進行內部資本投資,並以更高的速度不斷增長,這種組合在多倍增長方面很常見。.
Therefore, Flowserve has an ROCE of 12%. In absolute terms, that's a pretty normal return, and it's somewhat close to the Machinery industry average of 13%.
因此,福斯的ROCE爲12%。就絕對值而言,這是一個相當正常的回報率,而且非常接近機械行業板塊平均水平的13%。

How Are Returns Trending?
綜合上述,Cimpress非常有效地提高了其資本利用率所產生的回報。考慮到股票過去五年保持穩定,如果其他指標也不錯,則可能存在機會。因此,進一步研究這家公司並確定這些趨勢是否會持續是合理的。
Things have been pretty stable at Flowserve, with its capital employed and returns on that capital staying somewhat the same for the last five years. Businesses with these traits tend to be mature and steady operations because they're past the growth phase. So don't be surprised if Flowserve doesn't end up being a multi-bagger in a few years time.
在過去的五年中,福斯的資本投入和資本回報率保持了相對穩定的狀態。具備這些特徵的企業往往是成熟和穩定的運營,因爲它們已經過了增長階段。因此,如果未來幾年福斯不會成爲多倍增長股票,也就不足爲奇了。
