Vera Bradley Financial Ratios 2026-2009 | VRA

Brief overview of Vera Bradley's multiples and efficiency

Current figures are compared with the company's own five-year history for 2019–2024.

Market valuation is represented by P/E 26.88x (median 16.67x), EV/EBITDA 12.93x (median 7.42x), P/S 1.06x (median 1.06x). The combined ratio level is close to the company's five-year norm at a 0% deviation. No clear premium or discount is visible.

Current earnings relative to valuation equal about 3.7% on the 1/P/E measure. This is a valuation reference, not an expected payout.

Capital efficiency is characterized by ROE -36.3%, ROA -20.4%, ROCE -24.2%. The business is not generating positive returns on invested resources. Valuation should be read cautiously until earnings recover.

The cash cycle lengthened by 54.3 days to 235.9 days. Operations require more funding.

Overall assessment

Vera Bradley trades near its familiar ratio range. A new earnings or profitability trend is needed to change the view.

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