Return Trends At Flowserve (NYSE:FLS) Aren't Appealing
Return Trends At Flowserve (NYSE:FLS) Aren't Appealing
If we want to find a potential multi-bagger, often there are underlying trends that can provide clues. Firstly, we'd want to identify a growing return on capital employed (ROCE) and then alongside that, an ever-increasing base 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. Having said that, from a first glance at Flowserve (NYSE:FLS) we aren't jumping out of our chairs at how returns are trending, but let's have a deeper look.
如果我們想找到一個潛在的多倍股,通常會有一些潛在的趨勢可以提供線索。首先,我們希望確定不斷增長的資本僱用回報率(ROCE),然後再加上不斷增加的資本僱用基數。如果你看到這一點,通常意味着這是一家擁有出色業務模型和許多有利可圖再投資機會的公司。話雖如此,從第一眼看福斯(紐交所:FLS)的情況,我們並沒有因爲回報趨勢而激動得跳出椅子,但讓我們深入研究一下。
Understanding Return On Capital Employed (ROCE)
上面您可以看到蒙托克可再生能源現行ROCE與之前資本回報的比較,但過去只能知道這麼多。如果您感興趣,可以查看我們免費的蒙托克可再生能源分析師報告,了解分析師的預測。
If you haven't worked with ROCE before, it measures the 'return' (pre-tax profit) a company generates from capital employed in its business. The formula for this calculation on Flowserve is:
如果您以前沒有接觸過ROCE,它衡量的是公司從業務中使用的資本中所生成的「回報」(稅前利潤)。在福斯的計算公式爲:
Return on Capital Employed = Earnings Before Interest and Tax (EBIT) ÷ (Total Assets - Current Liabilities)
資本利用率 = 利息和稅前利潤(EBIT) ÷ (總資產 - 流動負債)
0.13 = US$494m ÷ (US$5.3b - US$1.4b) (Based on the trailing twelve months to September 2024).
0.13 = 49400萬美元 ÷ (53億美元 - 14億美元)(基於截至2024年9月的過去十二個月)。
So, Flowserve has an ROCE of 13%. By itself that's a normal return on capital and it's in line with the industry's average returns of 13%.
所以,福斯的ROCE爲13%。單從這個數字來看,這是一個正常的資本回報率,並且與行業平均回報率13%保持一致。
Above you can see how the current ROCE for Flowserve compares to its prior returns on capital, but there's only so much you can tell from the past. If you'd like, you can check out the forecasts from the analysts covering Flowserve for free.

What The Trend Of ROCE Can Tell Us
儘管如此,當我們看 enphase energy (納斯達克股票代碼:ENPH) 的時候,它似乎並沒有完全符合這些要求。
There hasn't been much to report for Flowserve's returns and its level of capital employed because both metrics have been steady for the past five years. Businesses with these traits tend to be mature and steady operations because they're past the growth phase. With that in mind, unless investment picks up again in the future, we wouldn't expect Flowserve to be a multi-bagger going forward.
福斯的回報和資本使用水平在過去五年中一直保持穩定,因此沒有太多可以報告的內容。具有這些特徵的企業往往是成熟和穩定運營的,因爲它們已經過了增長階段。考慮到這一點,除非未來再次出現投資增長,我們不認爲福斯未來會成爲多倍股。
The Bottom Line
最終結論
In summary, Flowserve isn't compounding its earnings but is generating stable returns on the same amount of capital employed. And with the stock having returned a mere 27% in the last five years to shareholders, you could argue that they're aware of these lackluster trends. So if you're looking for a multi-bagger, the underlying trends indicate you may have better chances elsewhere.
總的來說,福斯並未複利其收益,但在同等資本使用下產生穩定回報。在過去五年中,該股僅爲股東們帶來了微薄的27%回報,這表明他們意識到了這些不盡人意的趨勢。因此,如果您尋找多倍股,基礎趨勢表明您可能在其他地方擁有更好的機會。
