## Valuation
- **P/E (trailing): 56.8×**. AEVEX Corp. trades at 56.8× trailing earnings. The Industrials median in the September 2026 study was 25.7×. Forward P/E is 17.3×, lower than trailing, so analysts expect earnings to grow.
- **Price / sales: 1.9×**. Each dollar of revenue is priced at 1.9×.
- **EV / EBITDA: 24.8×**. Enterprise value is 24.8× operating earnings before depreciation, the multiple that ignores how the company is financed; above 20× is demanding.
- **Free-cash-flow yield: -12.9%**. Free cash flow is negative: the business is consuming cash, which is normal for heavy investment phases but a warning otherwise.
- **Earnings yield: 1.8%**. The inverse of the P/E: 1.8% of the price is earned each year.

## Profitability

- **Net margin: -0.2%**. The company reported a net loss over the last twelve months.
- **Return on equity: -0.3%**. Return on equity is negative because earnings are negative.
- **Return on invested capital: 2.2%**. Return on all capital, debt included, is 2.2%: close to or below the cost of capital, so growth may not create value.

- **Revenue growth (1 yr): 10.4%**. Revenue grew 10.4% over the last year.

- **Interest coverage: 0.4×**. Operating profit covers interest only 0.4×: fragile.
