# Chrysalis Investments Limited (CHRY.L) fundamentals

Data as of 2026-09-08. LSE, United Kingdom. Sector: Financial Services / Capital Markets. Price 72p, market value 348 millionp.

## Valuation
- **P/E (trailing): n/a** (negative earnings). Chrysalis Investments Limited reported negative earnings over the last twelve months, so the P/E is not meaningful; use price-to-sales, EV/EBITDA and free-cash-flow yield instead.
- **PEG: 0.01**. A PEG of 0.01 means the P/E is low relative to expected earnings growth: the market is not paying much for that growth.
- **Price / sales: 16.8×**. Each dollar of revenue is priced at 16.8×, a level that requires very high margins or very fast growth to justify.
- **Price / book: 0.4×**. The shares trade below book value, which can signal a bargain or a balance sheet the market doubts.
- **EV / EBITDA: 1.8×**. Enterprise value is 1.8× operating earnings before depreciation, the multiple that ignores how the company is financed; below 8× is inexpensive for most sectors.
- **Free-cash-flow yield: -3.7%** (5-yr avg -0.0%). Free cash flow is negative: the business is consuming cash, which is normal for heavy investment phases but a warning otherwise.

## Profitability
- **Net margin: 184.5%**. 184.5% of each dollar of sales reaches the bottom line.
- **Return on equity: 13.8%**. 13.8% on shareholders' equity is solid.
- **Return on invested capital: 20.6%**. Return on all capital, debt included, is 20.6%: comfortably above what that capital costs.
- **Return on assets: 16.9%**. Each dollar of assets produces 16.9% of profit; low single digits are normal for banks and insurers.

## Growth
- **Revenue growth (1 yr): 53.8%** (5-yr -16.6%/yr). Revenue grew 53.8% over the last year, against -16.6% a year compounded over five years: growth is accelerating.
- **EPS growth (1 yr): 264.2%** (5-yr -12.9%/yr). Earnings per share rose 264.2%, faster than revenue, so margins expanded or the share count shrank.

## Financial health
- **Piotroski F-score: 5/9**. 5 of 9 checks pass: mixed.
- **Cash and short-term investments: 118 millionp**. Leverage ratios are shown differently for banks and insurers, whose balance sheets are built on deposits and reserves; use return on equity and the regulatory capital in the filings instead.

## Dividends
- **Dividend: none**. Chrysalis Investments Limited does not currently pay a dividend, but it returned 24.7% of its market value through buybacks over the last year.

## Price and momentum
- **Total return (1 yr): -38.5%** (YTD -39.2%, 3-mo -5.7%). The shares are down 38.5% over twelve months including dividends.
- **From 52-week high: -44.8%** (2.0% above the low). Trading 45% below its 52-week high, deep in a drawdown.
- **200-day average: below**. The price sits below its 200-day moving average, the usual definition of a downtrend.
- **RSI (14-day): 40**. An RSI of 40 is neutral.
- **Beta (1 yr): 0.80** (volatility 26%). Beta of 0.80 against the FTSE All-Share: the shares move roughly with the market.
