# American Airlines Group Inc. (AAL) fundamentals

Data as of 2026-09-08. NASDAQ, United States. Sector: Industrials / Airlines. Price $13.13, market value $8.7 billion.

## Valuation
- **P/E (trailing): n/a** (negative earnings). American Airlines Group Inc. reported negative earnings over the last twelve months, so the P/E is not meaningful; use price-to-sales, EV/EBITDA and free-cash-flow yield instead.
- **Price / sales: 0.1×**. Each dollar of revenue is priced at 0.1×, a low multiple typical of thin-margin businesses or out-of-favour stocks.
- **EV / EBITDA: 11.5×**. Enterprise value is 11.5× operating earnings before depreciation, the multiple that ignores how the company is financed.
- **Free-cash-flow yield: 3.3%** (5-yr avg 3.1%). Free cash flow equals 3.3% of the market value, in line with its five-year average of 3.1%.

## Profitability
- **Operating margin: 1.7%**. 1.7% of revenue is left after running the business, which leaves little cushion in a downturn.
- **Net margin: 0.2%**. 0.2% of each dollar of sales reaches the bottom line.
- **Return on equity: -3.0%**. Return on equity is negative because earnings are negative.
- **Return on invested capital: 3.2%**. Return on all capital, debt included, is 3.2%: close to or below the cost of capital, so growth may not create value.
- **Return on assets: -0.5%**. Each dollar of assets produces -0.5% of profit.

## Growth
- **Revenue growth (1 yr): 0.8%** (3-yr 3.7%/yr, 5-yr 25.8%/yr). Revenue grew 0.8% over the last year, against 25.8% a year compounded over five years: growth is slowing.
- **EPS growth (1 yr): -86.3%** (3-yr -3.6%/yr). Earnings per share fell 86.3%, slower than revenue, so margins compressed.

## Financial health
- **Current ratio: 0.50** (quick 0.50). Current liabilities exceed current assets, so the company depends on ongoing cash generation or refinancing to pay the next year's bills.
- **Piotroski F-score: 5/9**. 5 of 9 checks pass: mixed.
