How to read a stock at a glance
Short-term price is driven by sentiment, long-term price by earnings. This tool condenses the key numbers from many statements into one card plus a 4-period trend so the direction of change jumps out.
Key ratios
- PE (P/E): price ÷ EPS; common measure of price vs earnings. Negative or very high (> 100) usually signals volatile or temporarily negative earnings.
- PB (P/B): price ÷ book value per share; common safety-margin measure; < 1 means below book.
- ROE: net profit ÷ average equity; long-term > 15% typically means high quality.
- Gross margin: gross profit ÷ revenue; > 40% stable over time often signals a moat.
- Net margin: net profit ÷ revenue; bottom-line profitability.
- Debt ratio: total liabilities ÷ total assets; > 70% usually means high leverage.
- EPS: net profit ÷ shares; trend per-share earning power.
Income statement
- Revenue: scale; YoY matters more than absolute value.
- Cost: cost control; cross-check with gross margin.
- Operating profit: earning power of the core business; ex-one-offs is more stable.
- Net profit attributable to parent: earnings attributable to listed-company shareholders; basis of EPS.
Cash flow
- Operating: day-to-day cash flow; long-term positive and > net profit is a quality signal.
- Investing: expansion or contraction; large negative often = capex cycle.
- Financing: debt/equity issuance, dividends; large positive = financing; large negative = dividends or repayment.
