## Valuation
- **P/E (trailing): 9.1×** (5-yr avg 10.0×, 3-yr avg 11.4×). ChoiceOne Financial Services Inc. trades at 9.1× trailing earnings, close to its own five-year average of 10.0×.

- **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: 10.0%** (5-yr avg 17.3%). Free cash flow equals 10.0% of the market value, below its five-year average of 17.3%, so the shares are pricier on cash than usual. Above 5% is generally attractive.

## Profitability
- **Net margin: 12.4%**. 12.4% of each dollar of sales reaches the bottom line.
- **Return on equity: 6.1%**. 6.1% on shareholders' equity is weak; the business earns little on the capital its owners have in it.
- **Return on assets: 1.2%**. Each dollar of assets produces 1.2% of profit; low single digits are normal for banks and insurers.
