The charts and tables on StockVisualize are designed to help you explore and understand data, not to tell you what to buy or sell. Markets move quickly and data can change, so you should always cross-check important figures with company filings, broker data and other independent sources before acting.
Nothing on StockVisualize.com is financial, investment, tax or legal advice, and nothing here should be treated as a recommendation or a solicitation to trade. You are responsible for your own investment decisions and for understanding the risks involved. If you are unsure, you should speak with a qualified financial adviser before making any commitments.

How the metrics on StockVisualize work
Under the hood, StockVisualize groups financial ratios into themes such as liquidity, profitability, efficiency, risk and leverage, cash flow, valuation and per-share metrics. Liquidity ratios like the current ratio, quick ratio and cash ratio look at whether a company can cover its short-term obligations. Profitability margins show how much of each unit of revenue turns into profit.
Efficiency ratios describe how well a business uses its assets, inventory and receivables to generate sales. Debt-related metrics shine a light on financial risk and capital structure. Cash-flow metrics focus on how much cash the core business generates and how much is left after investment. Valuation ratios such as price-to-earnings or price-to-sales help you judge how expensive a stock looks relative to those fundamentals, while per-share measures translate everything down to a single share.
Throughout the app you will see short definitions and explanations beside each metric. These are written in plain language so you can quickly remind yourself what a ratio means before using it in a decision.
Glossary of stock metrics
This glossary includes every metric definition currently used by StockVisualize. Each definition is rendered as plain HTML text so it is readable and crawlable.
Liquidity
- Current ratio
Q: Can the company cover its short-term obligations?
Measures a company’s ability to pay short-term liabilities with short-term assets. A ratio above 1.0 typically indicates reasonable liquidity.
Higher is generally better.
- Quick ratio
Q: Can the company quickly pay its short-term debts without selling inventory?
A stricter liquidity measure than the current ratio, excluding inventory. Shows the ability to meet short-term obligations using only liquid assets.
Higher is better.
- Cash ratio
Q: How much of its short-term debt can the company pay using only cash?
Compares cash and cash equivalents to current liabilities. Indicates the ability to meet near-term obligations without relying on receivables or inventory.
Higher is better, but extremely high values may indicate underused cash.
Profitability
- Gross profit margin
Q: How efficiently does the company produce its goods or services?
Shows how much of each dollar of revenue is left after direct production costs (cost of goods sold). High margins suggest good pricing power or strong cost control.
Higher is better.
- Operating profit margin
Q: How profitable is the company from its core operations?
Measures profit from core operations after operating expenses (but before interest and taxes). Useful for judging underlying business efficiency.
Higher is better.
- Net profit margin
Q: How much profit does the company keep from its revenue after all expenses?
Shows the percentage of revenue that becomes net income after operating costs, interest, and taxes. A key measure of overall profitability.
Higher is better.
- EBIT margin
Q: How profitable is the business before interest and taxes?
EBIT margin compares earnings before interest and taxes to revenue. It isolates operating performance before capital structure and tax effects.
Higher is better.
- EBITDA margin
Q: How strong is the company’s cash-like operating profitability?
EBITDA margin removes non-cash charges like depreciation and amortization. Often used to compare operational performance across capital-intensive businesses.
Higher is better.
- Pretax profit margin
Q: How profitable is the company before taxes?
Compares pre-tax income to revenue. Useful for understanding profitability before the impact of different tax regimes.
Higher is better.
- Continuing operations profit margin
Q: How profitable are the ongoing, continuing parts of the business?
Measures profit from continuing operations as a percentage of revenue, excluding one-off or discontinued items.
Higher is better.
- Bottom-line profit margin
Q: What is the true bottom-line profitability of the company?
Represents net profit after all expenses, interest, and taxes as a percentage of revenue. Effectively another lens on the company’s final profit margin.
Higher is better.
Efficiency / operations
- Asset turnover
Q: How efficiently does the company use its assets to generate revenue?
Compares revenue to total assets. A higher ratio means the company is generating more sales per unit of assets.
Higher is better.
- Inventory turnover
Q: How quickly does the company sell and replace its inventory?
Shows how many times inventory is sold over a period. High turnover can indicate strong demand or efficient inventory management, while very high values may signal stock-out risk.
Higher is generally better, within reason.
- Receivables turnover
Q: How quickly does the company collect cash from customers?
Measures how many times accounts receivable are collected in a period. Higher values indicate faster collections and better credit management.
Higher is better.
- Payables turnover
Q: How quickly does the company pay its suppliers?
Shows how often accounts payable are paid during a period. Lower values can mean better use of supplier credit, but very low values may strain relationships.
Moderate or lower is usually better, as long as suppliers are comfortable.
- Fixed asset turnover
Q: How efficiently does the company use its fixed assets to generate revenue?
Compares revenue to net fixed assets (e.g., property, plant, equipment). High values suggest efficient use of long-term assets.
Higher is better.
Risk & leverage
- Debt-to-assets ratio
Q: What portion of the company’s assets is financed by debt?
Compares total debt to total assets. Higher values indicate more leverage and higher financial risk.
Lower is generally better.
- Debt-to-equity ratio
Q: How much debt does the company use relative to shareholders’ equity?
Shows the balance between debt and equity financing. Very high values can signal elevated financial risk and sensitivity to interest rates.
Lower is usually better, though capital-intensive industries may run higher ratios.
- Debt-to-capital ratio
Q: How much of the company’s capital structure is funded by debt?
Compares total debt to the sum of debt and equity. Indicates overall leverage in the capital structure.
Lower is generally better.
- Long-term debt-to-capital ratio
Q: How reliant is the company on long-term debt financing?
Focuses on long-term debt as a share of total capital. High values can point to refinancing risk and long-duration interest exposure.
Lower is better.
- Financial leverage ratio
Q: How much are the company’s assets magnified relative to equity?
Often calculated as total assets divided by total equity. Higher leverage boosts returns in good times but increases risk in downturns.
Lower to moderate is generally safer.
Cash flow
- Operating cash flow ratio
Q: Can the company cover its current liabilities with operating cash flow?
Compares operating cash flow to current liabilities. Indicates the ability to service short-term obligations from core business cash generation.
Higher is better.
- Operating cash flow / sales
Q: How much operating cash flow is generated per dollar of sales?
Shows the share of revenue that turns into operating cash flow, a cash-based profitability measure.
Higher is better.
- Free cash flow / operating cash flow
Q: How much of operating cash flow remains after capital expenditures?
Measures the proportion of operating cash flow that becomes free cash flow after investing in property, plant, and equipment.
Higher is better.
- Operating cash flow per share
Q: How much operating cash flow is generated for each share?
Shows operating cash flow divided by the number of shares outstanding. Useful for comparing cash generation on a per-share basis across companies.
Higher is better.
- Free cash flow per share
Q: How much free cash flow is available per share?
Represents free cash flow after capital expenditures on a per-share basis. Important for assessing the capacity to pay dividends, buy back stock, or reduce debt.
Higher is better.
Valuation
- Price-to-earnings (P/E)
Q: How expensive is the stock relative to its earnings?
Shows how much investors are paying for each dollar of earnings. High P/E ratios can reflect strong growth expectations, while low P/E can suggest value or potential issues.
Lower is generally better, unless strong growth justifies a premium.
- Price-to-sales (P/S)
Q: How is the stock valued relative to its revenue?
Compares market value to revenue. Useful when earnings are volatile or negative. High values can indicate rich valuations.
Lower is generally better.
- Price-to-free-cash-flow
Q: How expensive is the stock based on its free cash flow?
Compares the company’s market value to its free cash flow. A lower ratio can indicate a more attractively valued cash generator.
Lower is better.
- Price-to-operating-cash-flow
Q: How expensive is the stock relative to operating cash flow?
Compares market value to operating cash flow, providing a cash-based valuation view.
Lower is better.
- Price-to-book (P/B)
Q: How is the stock priced relative to its net asset value?
Compares market price to book value per share. Very high values can indicate strong market confidence or overvaluation; very low values can signal distress or undervaluation.
Lower is generally better, but sector norms matter.
- EV/EBITDA
Q: How expensive is the company relative to its EBITDA (cash-like earnings)?
Often referred to as EV/EBITDA. Compares enterprise value (equity + debt – cash) to EBITDA, and is widely used to compare valuations across companies and industries.
Lower is usually better.
Per-share metrics
- Revenue per share
Q: How much revenue does the company generate per share?
Shows total revenue divided by shares outstanding. Useful for comparing business scale on a per-share basis.
Higher is better.
- Net income per share (EPS)
Q: How much net income is attributable to each share?
Essentially earnings per share (EPS) based on net income. Core profitability metric for equity holders.
Higher is better.
- Cash per share
Q: How much cash backs each share of stock?
Indicates cash and cash equivalents per share. High values can provide a margin of safety and financial flexibility.
Higher is better.
- Book value per share
Q: What is the accounting value of each share based on the balance sheet?
Represents shareholders’ equity divided by the number of shares. Often used together with the price-to-book ratio.
Higher book value per share, for a given price, is better.
- Tangible book value per share
Q: What is each share worth excluding intangible assets like goodwill?
Similar to book value per share but removes intangibles. Useful for conservative asset-based valuation.
Higher is better.
- Shareholders’ equity per share
Q: How much shareholders’ equity supports each share?
Shows total shareholders’ equity divided by shares outstanding. Another way to view the company’s capital base on a per-share basis.
Higher is better.
