# Coupang Inc. (CPNG) fundamentals

Data as of 2026-09-08. NYSE, United States. Sector: Consumer Cyclical / Internet & Direct Marketing Retail. Price $15.29, market value $27.5 billion.

## Valuation
- **P/E (trailing): n/a** (negative earnings). Coupang Inc. 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: 1.50**. A PEG of 1.50 is in the range usually read as fairly priced for its 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: 9.2×**. The shares trade at 9.2× book value; most of the value is in earnings power and intangibles rather than the balance sheet.
- **Free-cash-flow yield: 0.4%** (5-yr avg 1.2%). Free cash flow equals 0.4% of the market value, below its five-year average of 1.2%, so the shares are pricier on cash than usual.

## Profitability
- **Gross margin: 28.4%**. Coupang Inc. keeps 28.4% of revenue after the direct cost of what it sells.
- **Operating margin: -1.8%**. Operating margin is negative: the business loses money before interest and tax.
- **Net margin: 0.6%**. 0.6% of each dollar of sales reaches the bottom line.
- **Return on equity: 4.5%**. 4.5% on shareholders' equity is weak; the business earns little on the capital its owners have in it.
- **Return on invested capital: 47.4%**. Return on all capital, debt included, is 47.4%: comfortably above what that capital costs.
- **Return on assets: -4.3%**. Each dollar of assets produces -4.3% of profit.

## Growth
- **Revenue growth (1 yr): 14.1%** (3-yr 18.8%/yr, 5-yr 23.6%/yr). Revenue grew 14.1% over the last year, against 23.6% a year compounded over five years: growth is slowing.
- **EPS growth (1 yr): 37.5%**. Earnings per share rose 37.5%, faster than revenue, so margins expanded or the share count shrank.

## Financial health
- **Debt to equity: 0.14**. Debt is 0.14 times equity: a conservative balance sheet.
- **Altman Z-score: 3.65**. A Z-score of 3.65 places the company in the safe zone for bankruptcy risk.
