IMAX Corporation Financial Ratios 2025-2008 | IMAX

Brief overview of IMAX Corporation's financial ratios

The comparison uses the five latest available annual observations between 2018 and 2025.

Key multiples at the end of the period are P/E 56.23x (median 54.31x), EV/EBITDA 21.56x (median 12.48x), P/S 4.78x (median 4.02x). Valuation is 19% above five-year reference levels. The premium requires support from earnings and returns.

At the current P/E, inverse earnings yield is 1.8%, a useful bridge between price and business earnings.

End-period return metrics are ROE 10.3%, ROA 3.9%, ROCE 24.9%. Profitability remains positive and sufficient for normal operations without indicating exceptional efficiency.

Current PEG is 0.67x; the market pays comparatively little per unit of expected growth.

A shorter cycle, from 219.8 days to 168.7 days, indicates faster release of cash from operations.

Conclusion

IMAX Corporation's high quality ratios explain part of the market premium but increase sensitivity to slower growth.

Multiples are an important financial analysis tool for the company IMAX Corporation, 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.
