# ARKO Petroleum Corp. (APC) fundamentals

Data as of 2026-09-08. NASDAQ, United States. Sector: Energy / Oil, Gas & Consumable Fuels. Price $18.99, market value $1.6 billion.

## Valuation
- **P/E (trailing): 23.4×**. ARKO Petroleum Corp. trades at 23.4× trailing earnings. The Energy median in the September 2026 study was 16.8×. Forward P/E is 17.9×, lower than trailing, so analysts expect earnings to grow.
- **Price / sales: 0.3×**. Each dollar of revenue is priced at 0.3×, a low multiple typical of thin-margin businesses or out-of-favour stocks.
- **Price / book: 3.5×**. The shares trade at 3.5× book value; book value is a meaningful part of the valuation.
- **EV / EBITDA: 17.9×**. Enterprise value is 17.9× operating earnings before depreciation, the multiple that ignores how the company is financed.
- **Free-cash-flow yield: 1.7%**. Free cash flow equals 1.7% of the market value.
- **Earnings yield: 4.3%**. The inverse of the P/E: 4.3% of the price is earned each year.

## Profitability
- **Operating margin: 1.4%**. 1.4% of revenue is left after running the business, which leaves little cushion in a downturn.
- **Net margin: 0.6%**. 0.6% of each dollar of sales reaches the bottom line.
- **Return on equity: 90.6%**. A 90.6% return on equity is extremely high; check whether buybacks or debt have shrunk the equity base, which flatters the ratio.
- **Return on invested capital: 6.8%**. Return on all capital, debt included, is 6.8%.
- **Return on assets: 2.7%**. Each dollar of assets produces 2.7% of profit.

## Growth
- **Revenue growth (1 yr): -12.4%** (3-yr -7.6%/yr). Revenue fell 12.4% over the last year.
- **EPS growth (1 yr): -18.6%** (3-yr -17.8%/yr). Earnings per share fell 18.6%, slower than revenue, so margins compressed.
- **Free-cash-flow growth (3 yr): -4.4%/yr**. Free cash flow has compounded at -4.4% a year over three years, keeping pace with earnings: the growth is real cash.

## Financial health
- **Debt to equity: 26.25**. Debt is 26.25 times equity, a leveraged balance sheet that needs steady cash flow to service.
- **Net debt / EBITDA: 6.7×**. It would take 6.7 years of operating earnings to repay net borrowings, above the 3× level most lenders treat as comfortable.
- **Current ratio: 0.98** (quick 0.84). Current liabilities exceed current assets, so the company depends on ongoing cash generation or refinancing to pay the next year's bills.
- **Altman Z-score: 5.40**. A Z-score of 5.40 places the company in the safe zone for bankruptcy risk.
- **Piotroski F-score: 6/9**. 6 of 9 checks pass: mixed.

- **From 52-week high: -12.6%** (11.7% above the low). Trading 13% below its 52-week high.
- **RSI (14-day): 51**. An RSI of 51 is neutral.
- **Beta (1 yr): 0.25** (volatility 33%). Beta of 0.25 against the S&P 500: the shares move much less than the market.
