National CineMedia Financial Ratios 2026-2009 | NCMI
Brief overview of National CineMedia's valuation and returns
The comparison uses the five latest available annual observations between 2016 and 2023.
Key multiples at the end of the period are P/E 0.29x (median 17.08x), EV/EBITDA 4.15x (median 9.92x), P/S 2.51x (median 1.84x). Multiples are on average 26.3% above their own medians. A substantial share of positive expectations may already be priced in.
Returns on assets and capital are represented by ROE -2.8%, ROA -2.2%, ROCE -3.2%. Losses and negative capital returns make ordinary P/E-like references unstable or inapplicable.
On PEG (0.2x), valuation is restrained relative to growth, but one ratio cannot replace cash-flow and risk analysis.
A shorter cycle, from 110.2 days to -294 days, indicates faster release of cash from operations.
What the ratios show
National CineMedia's profile looks stretched: price anticipates improvement that current quality ratios do not yet confirm.

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