Brief overview of Gladstone Investment Corporation's valuation and returns
The comparison uses the five latest available annual observations between 2015 and 2019.
Market valuation is represented by P/E 5.03x (median 5.89x), P/B 0.99x (median 0.99x), P/CF 10.4x (median 8.99x). The combined ratio level is close to the company's five-year norm at a 0% deviation. No clear premium or discount is visible.
The inverse P/E implies an earnings yield of 19.9%. This is not a dividend yield, but current earnings relative to market price.
End-period return metrics are ROE -2%, ROA -1.3%, ROCE 5.9%. Returns below zero mean resources are not producing positive profit. Recovery in operating results is the main reference point.
Price, earnings and growth produce a PEG of 0.47x. A value below one indicates moderate pricing relative to expected growth.
Banks and insurers require sector-specific reading: the value and return on capital matter more than standard industrial multiples.
What the ratios show
Gladstone Investment Corporation trades near its familiar ratio range. A new earnings or profitability trend is needed to change the view.
