Kadant Financial Ratios 2026-2009 | KAI
Brief overview of Kadant 's financial ratios
The review covers five available annual periods spanning 2021 to 2026.
Market valuation is represented by P/E 40.03x (median 39.9x), EV/EBITDA 19x (median 19x), P/S 3.88x (median 3.88x). On average, multiples differ from their five-year medians by only 0%. Valuation is near its familiar historical range.
Earnings yield calculated as 1/P/E is about 2.5%, showing current profit per unit of share price.
Capital efficiency is characterized by ROE 10.4%, ROA 6%, ROCE 16.1%. Fundamental efficiency is balanced: profitability supports valuation but does not remove the need for future growth.
On PEG (0.17x), valuation is restrained relative to growth, but one ratio cannot replace cash-flow and risk analysis.
The cash conversion cycle lengthened from 64.3 days to 76.1 days, or 11.8 days. More cash is tied up in operations.
Valuation takeaway
Kadant 's multiples form a balanced picture without a clear discount or premium. Future appeal depends on earnings and return trends.

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