# Burberry Group plc (BRBY.L) fundamentals

Data as of 2026-09-08. LSE, United Kingdom. Sector: Consumer Cyclical / Textiles, Apparel & Luxury Goods. Price 1091p, market value 3.9 billionp.

## Valuation
- **P/E (trailing): 181.9×** (5-yr avg 6014.4×). Burberry Group plc trades at 181.9× trailing earnings, well below its own five-year average of 6014.4×: cheap by its own standards. The Consumer Cyclical median in the September 2026 study was 19.5×. Forward P/E is 19.3×, lower than trailing, so analysts expect earnings to grow.
- **PEG: 0.15**. A PEG of 0.15 means the P/E is low relative to expected earnings growth: the market is not paying much for that growth.
- **Price / sales: 0.8×**. Each dollar of revenue is priced at 0.8×, a low multiple typical of thin-margin businesses or out-of-favour stocks.
- **Price / book: 4.2×**. The shares trade at 4.2× book value; book value is a meaningful part of the valuation.
- **EV / EBITDA: 7.3×**. Enterprise value is 7.3× operating earnings before depreciation, the multiple that ignores how the company is financed; below 8× is inexpensive for most sectors.
- **Free-cash-flow yield: 18.4%** (5-yr avg 0.1%). Free cash flow equals 18.4% of the market value, above its five-year average of 0.1%, so the shares are cheaper on cash than they have usually been. Above 5% is generally attractive.
- **Earnings yield: 0.5%**. The inverse of the P/E: 0.5% of the price is earned each year.

## Profitability
- **Gross margin: 58.6%**. Burberry Group plc keeps 58.6% of revenue after the direct cost of what it sells.
- **Operating margin: 3.2%**. 3.2% of revenue is left after running the business, which leaves little cushion in a downturn.
- **Net margin: 0.9%**. 0.9% of each dollar of sales reaches the bottom line.
- **Return on equity: 2.2%**. 2.2% on shareholders' equity is weak; the business earns little on the capital its owners have in it.
- **Return on invested capital: 8.8%**. Return on all capital, debt included, is 8.8%.
- **Return on assets: -1.7%**. Each dollar of assets produces -1.7% of profit.

## Growth
- **Revenue growth (1 yr): -1.7%** (3-yr -7.9%/yr, 5-yr 0.6%/yr). Revenue fell 1.7% over the last year, against 0.6% a year compounded over five years: growth is slowing.
- **EPS growth (1 yr): 127.8%** (3-yr -64.1%/yr, 5-yr -42.5%/yr). Earnings per share rose 127.8%, faster than revenue, so margins expanded or the share count shrank.
- **Free-cash-flow growth (3 yr): -13.5%/yr**. Free cash flow has compounded at -13.5% a year over three years, keeping pace with earnings: the growth is real cash.

## Financial health
- **Debt to equity: 1.62**. Debt is 1.62 times equity, a leveraged balance sheet that needs steady cash flow to service.
- **Net debt / EBITDA: 1.3×**. It would take 1.3 years of operating earnings to repay net borrowings, within the comfortable range.
- **Interest coverage: 0.9×**. Operating profit covers interest only 0.9×: fragile.
- **Current ratio: 1.87** (quick 1.36). Current assets cover the next year's liabilities 1.87 times.
- **Altman Z-score: 2.74**. A Z-score of 2.74 is in the grey zone; not distressed, not clearly safe.
- **Piotroski F-score: 6/9**. 6 of 9 checks pass: mixed.
