# Crown Holdings Inc. (CCK) fundamentals

Data as of 2026-09-08. NYSE, United States. Sector: Consumer Cyclical / Distributors. Price $115.16, market value $12.5 billion.

## Valuation
- **P/E (trailing): 16.5×** (5-yr avg 19.0×, 3-yr avg 20.9×). Crown Holdings Inc. trades at 16.5× trailing earnings, close to its own five-year average of 19.0×. The Consumer Cyclical median in the September 2026 study was 19.5×. Forward P/E is 12.7×, lower than trailing, so analysts expect earnings to grow.
- **PEG: 0.16**. A PEG of 0.16 means the P/E is low relative to expected earnings growth: the market is not paying much for that growth.
- **Price / sales: 0.9×**. Each dollar of revenue is priced at 0.9×, a low multiple typical of thin-margin businesses or out-of-favour stocks.
- **Price / book: 4.3×**. The shares trade at 4.3× book value; book value is a meaningful part of the valuation.
- **Free-cash-flow yield: 9.6%** (5-yr avg 4.8%). Free cash flow equals 9.6% of the market value, above its five-year average of 4.8%, so the shares are cheaper on cash than they have usually been. Above 5% is generally attractive.
- **Earnings yield: 6.0%**. The inverse of the P/E: 6.0% of the price is earned each year.

## Profitability
- **Operating margin: 12.3%**. 12.3% of revenue is left after running the business.
- **Net margin: 6.0%**. 6.0% of each dollar of sales reaches the bottom line.
- **Return on equity: 24.6%**. 24.6% on shareholders' equity is excellent if it is not driven by leverage; sustained above 20% usually signals a competitive advantage.
- **Return on invested capital: 15.8%**. Return on all capital, debt included, is 15.8%: comfortably above what that capital costs.
- **Return on assets: 5.5%**. Each dollar of assets produces 5.5% of profit.

## Growth
- **Revenue growth (1 yr): 4.8%** (3-yr -1.5%/yr, 5-yr 5.7%/yr). Revenue grew 4.8% over the last year, against 5.7% a year compounded over five years.
- **EPS growth (1 yr): 79.7%** (3-yr 2.1%/yr, 5-yr 8.2%/yr). Earnings per share rose 79.7%, faster than revenue, so margins expanded or the share count shrank.

## Financial health
- **Debt to equity: 1.96**. Debt is 1.96 times equity, a leveraged balance sheet that needs steady cash flow to service.
- **Piotroski F-score: 7/9**. 7 of 9 fundamental checks pass: strong and improving financials.

## Dividends
- **Dividend yield: 1.14%** ($1.22 per share, trailing). Crown Holdings Inc. yields 1.14%, a modest yield more typical of a growth-oriented payer.
- **Payout ratio: 16%** (11% of free cash flow). 16% of earnings goes out as dividends, leaving room to keep raising it.

- **From 52-week high: -6.3%** (29.1% above the low). Trading 6% below its 52-week high.
- **200-day average: above**. The price sits above its 200-day moving average, the usual definition of an uptrend.
- **RSI (14-day): 43**. An RSI of 43 is neutral.
- **Beta (1 yr): 0.45** (volatility 25%). Beta of 0.45 against the S&P 500: the shares move much less than the market.
