Can Avista Corporation (NYSE:AVA) Improve Its Returns?
Can Avista Corporation (NYSE:AVA) Improve Its Returns?
Many investors are still learning about the various metrics that can be useful when analysing a stock. This article is for those who would like to learn about Return On Equity (ROE). To keep the lesson grounded in practicality, we'll use ROE to better understand Avista Corporation (NYSE:AVA).
ROE or return on equity is a useful tool to assess how effectively a company can generate returns on the investment it received from its shareholders. Put another way, it reveals the company's success at turning shareholder investments into profits.
Check out our latest analysis for Avista
How Do You Calculate Return On Equity?
ROE can be calculated by using the formula:
Return on Equity = Net Profit (from continuing operations) ÷ Shareholders' Equity
So, based on the above formula, the ROE for Avista is:
6.6% = US$148m ÷ US$2.2b (Based on the trailing twelve months to June 2022).
The 'return' is the yearly profit. One way to conceptualize this is that for each $1 of shareholders' capital it has, the company made $0.07 in profit.
Does Avista Have A Good ROE?
One simple way to determine if a company has a good return on equity is to compare it to the average for its industry. However, this method is only useful as a rough check, because companies do differ quite a bit within the same industry classification. If you look at the image below, you can see Avista has a lower ROE than the average (8.9%) in the Integrated Utilities industry classification.
NYSE:AVA Return on Equity September 27th 2022Unfortunately, that's sub-optimal. That being said, a low ROE is not always a bad thing, especially if the company has low leverage as this still leaves room for improvement if the company were to take on more debt. When a company has low ROE but high debt levels, we would be cautious as the risk involved is too high. To know the 4 risks we have identified for Avista visit our risks dashboard for free.
The Importance Of Debt To Return On Equity
Companies usually need to invest money to grow their profits. That cash can come from issuing shares, retained earnings, or debt. In the first and second cases, the ROE will reflect this use of cash for investment in the business. In the latter case, the use of debt will improve the returns, but will not change the equity. In this manner the use of debt will boost ROE, even though the core economics of the business stay the same.
Avista's Debt And Its 6.6% ROE
It's worth noting the high use of debt by Avista, leading to its debt to equity ratio of 1.13. With a fairly low ROE, and significant use of debt, it's hard to get excited about this business at the moment. Investors should think carefully about how a company might perform if it was unable to borrow so easily, because credit markets do change over time.
Conclusion
Return on equity is a useful indicator of the ability of a business to generate profits and return them to shareholders. In our books, the highest quality companies have high return on equity, despite low debt. If two companies have around the same level of debt to equity, and one has a higher ROE, I'd generally prefer the one with higher ROE.
Having said that, while ROE is a useful indicator of business quality, you'll have to look at a whole range of factors to determine the right price to buy a stock. Profit growth rates, versus the expectations reflected in the price of the stock, are a particularly important to consider. So you might want to take a peek at this data-rich interactive graph of forecasts for the company.
Of course, you might find a fantastic investment by looking elsewhere. So take a peek at this free list of interesting companies.

许多投资者仍在学习在分析股票时可能有用的各种指标。这篇文章是为那些想了解股本回报率(ROE)的人准备的。为了使课程立足于实践,我们将使用净资产收益率来更好地了解Avista公司(纽约证券交易所代码:AVA)。
净资产收益率,即股本回报率,是评估一家公司从股东那里获得投资回报的有效程度的有用工具。换句话说,它揭示了该公司成功地将股东投资转化为利润。
查看我们对Avista的最新分析
你如何计算股本回报率?
可使用以下公式计算净资产收益率:
股本回报率=(持续经营的)净利润?股东权益
因此,根据上述公式,Avista的ROE为:
6.6%=1.48亿美元×22亿美元(基于截至2022年6月的12个月的往绩)。
“回报”就是年度利润。一种将其概念化的方法是,公司每拥有1美元的股东资本,就能获得0.07美元的利润。
Avista的净资产收益率好吗?
确定一家公司是否拥有良好的股本回报率的一个简单方法是将其与所在行业的平均水平进行比较。然而,这种方法只是作为一种粗略的检查,因为在同一行业分类中,公司确实有很大的不同。如果您查看下图,您可以看到Avista的ROE低于集成公用事业行业分类中的平均ROE(8.9%)。
纽约证券交易所:AVA股本回报率2022年9月27日不幸的是,这并不是最优的。话虽如此,低ROE并不总是一件坏事,特别是如果公司的杠杆率较低,因为如果公司承担更多债务,这仍有改进的空间。当一家公司的净资产收益率低但债务水平高时,我们会谨慎行事,因为涉及的风险太高。要了解我们为Avista确定的4个风险,请免费访问我们的风险仪表板。
债务对股本回报率的重要性
公司通常需要投入资金来增加利润。这些现金可以来自发行股票、留存收益或债务。在第一种和第二种情况下,净资产收益率将反映对企业投资的现金使用情况。在后一种情况下,债务的使用将提高回报,但不会改变股权。在这种情况下,债务的使用将提高净资产收益率,即使企业的核心经济保持不变。
Avista的债务及其6.6%的净资产收益率
值得注意的是,Avista高度利用债务,导致其债务与股本比率为1.13。由于净资产收益率(ROE)相当低,而且大量使用债务,目前很难对这项业务感到兴奋。投资者应该仔细考虑,如果一家公司不能如此轻松地借款,它可能会表现如何,因为信贷市场确实会随着时间的推移而变化。
结论
股本回报率是衡量一家企业产生利润并将其返还给股东的能力的有用指标。在我们的账目中,最高质量的公司拥有高股本回报率,尽管债务水平较低。如果两家公司的债务权益比大致相同,而其中一家公司的净资产收益率更高,我通常会更喜欢净资产收益率更高的那家公司。
话虽如此,虽然净资产收益率是衡量业务质量的有用指标,但你必须考虑一系列因素,才能确定购买股票的合适价格。相对于股价反映的预期,利润增长率是一个特别重要的考虑因素。因此,你可能想看看这张数据丰富的公司预测互动图表。
当然了,如果你把目光投向别处,你可能会发现这是一笔很棒的投资。所以让我们来看看这个免费有趣的公司名单。
