Freeport-McMoRan Financial Ratios 2025-2006 | FCX

Brief overview of Freeport-McMoRan 's financial ratios

The comparison uses the five latest available annual observations between 2021 and 2025.

Market valuation is represented by P/E 40.76x (median 29.99x), EV/EBITDA 12.94x (median 8.71x), P/S 3.47x (median 2.67x). Multiples are on average 35.9% above their own medians. A substantial share of positive expectations may already be priced in.

Earnings yield calculated as 1/P/E is about 2.5%, showing current profit per unit of share price.

Returns on assets and capital are represented by ROE 11.7%, ROA 3.8%, ROCE 34.5%. Quality ratios send a mostly positive signal: resources are productive, with room for improvement.

On PEG (1.4x), the market prices growth without an obvious discount or excessive premium.

The cash conversion cycle decreased 16.1 days to -45.3 days, supporting working-capital efficiency.

Conclusion

Freeport-McMoRan 's profitability supports higher multiples, although much of the quality is already reflected in price.

Multiples are an important financial analysis tool for the company Freeport-McMoRan , allowing investors and analysts to quickly assess the company’s value and investment attractiveness based on the ratio of market indicators to the company’s financial performance. Essentially, multiples express how the market values the company relative to its earnings, revenue, equity, or other key metrics.

Advantages of Using Financial Ratios
  • Simplified Data Analysis
    Financial ratios transform large volumes of accounting data into compact and easily interpretable indicators, significantly simplifying the assessment of the company’s condition.
  • Comparability Between Companies
    Multiples standardize financial metrics, enabling objective comparison of companies of different sizes, industries, and market capitalizations.
  • Identification of Trends and Issues
    Regular analysis of ratios helps track the dynamics of financial health, identify strengths and weaknesses of the business, as well as potential risks.
  • Decision Support
    Financial multiples serve as an important tool for investors, creditors, and company management in making investment, credit, and managerial decisions.
  • Accelerated Assessment of Investment Attractiveness
    Ratios allow quick determination of key performance, liquidity, and financial stability indicators, facilitating prompt evaluation of companies’ attractiveness for investments.

Using multiples enables comparison between companies, even if they differ in size or industry, as they standardize financial data into ratios convenient for analysis. This is especially useful for evaluating companies where direct analysis of financial statements may be complex or require in-depth knowledge.
