# Bunge Limited (BG) fundamentals

Data as of 2026-11-04. NYSE, United States. Sector: Consumer Defensive / Food Products. Price $94.72, market value $18.2 billion.

## Valuation
- **P/E (trailing): 16.3×** (5-yr avg 9.6×, 3-yr avg 11.2×). Bunge Limited trades at 16.3× trailing earnings, well above its own five-year average of 9.6×: investors are paying up relative to the company's past. The Consumer Defensive median in the September 2026 study was 20.1×. Forward P/E is 8.6×, 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: 1.1×**. The shares trade at 1.1× book value; book value is a meaningful part of the valuation.
- **Free-cash-flow yield: -14.6%** (5-yr avg -11.2%). Free cash flow is negative: the business is consuming cash, which is normal for heavy investment phases but a warning otherwise.
- **Earnings yield: 6.1%**. The inverse of the P/E: 6.1% of the price is earned each year.

## Profitability

- **Net margin: 4.8%**. 4.8% of each dollar of sales reaches the bottom line.
- **Return on equity: 5.1%**. 5.1% on shareholders' equity is weak; the business earns little on the capital its owners have in it.

- **200-day average: below**. The price sits below its 200-day moving average, the usual definition of a downtrend.
