Valuation ratio | Description | The company |
---|---|---|
P/OP ratio | Because P/E ratio is calculated using net income, the ratio can be sensitive to nonrecurring earnings and capital structure, analysts may use price to operating profit. | Ecolab Inc. P/OP ratio increased from 2019 to 2020 but then slightly decreased from 2020 to 2021 not reaching 2019 level. |
P/S ratio | An rationale for the P/S ratio is that sales, as the top line in an income statement, are generally less subject to distortion or manipulation than other fundamentals such as EPS or book value. Sales are also more stable than earnings and never negative. | Ecolab Inc. P/S ratio increased from 2019 to 2020 but then slightly decreased from 2020 to 2021 not reaching 2019 level. |
P/BV ratio | The P/BV ratio is interpreted as an indicator of market judgment about the relationship between a company required rate of return and its actual rate of return. | Ecolab Inc. P/BV ratio increased from 2019 to 2020 but then slightly decreased from 2020 to 2021 not reaching 2019 level. |
