# Distribution Solutions Group Inc. (DSGR) fundamentals

Data as of 2026-09-08. NASDAQ, United States. Sector: Technology / Electronic Equipment, Instruments & Components. Price $34.66, market value $1.6 billion.

## Valuation
- **P/E (trailing): 182.4×** (5-yr avg 120.0×, 3-yr avg 152.2×). Distribution Solutions Group Inc. trades at 182.4× trailing earnings, well above its own five-year average of 120.0×: investors are paying up relative to the company's past. The Technology median in the September 2026 study was 32.1×. Forward P/E is 19.7×, lower than trailing, so analysts expect earnings to grow.
- **PEG: 0.09**. A PEG of 0.09 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: 2.4×**. The shares trade at 2.4× book value; book value is a meaningful part of the valuation.
- **EV / EBITDA: 14.6×**. Enterprise value is 14.6× operating earnings before depreciation, the multiple that ignores how the company is financed.
- **Free-cash-flow yield: 2.3%** (5-yr avg 2.4%). Free cash flow equals 2.3% of the market value, in line with its five-year average of 2.4%.
- **Earnings yield: 0.5%**. The inverse of the P/E: 0.5% of the price is earned each year.

## Profitability
- **Gross margin: 32.7%**. Distribution Solutions Group Inc. keeps 32.7% of revenue after the direct cost of what it sells.
- **Operating margin: 3.5%**. 3.5% of revenue is left after running the business, which leaves little cushion in a downturn.
- **Net margin: 0.4%**. 0.4% of each dollar of sales reaches the bottom line.
- **Return on equity: 1.3%**. 1.3% on shareholders' equity is weak; the business earns little on the capital its owners have in it.
- **Return on invested capital: 4.5%**. Return on all capital, debt included, is 4.5%: close to or below the cost of capital, so growth may not create value.
- **Return on assets: 0.5%**. Each dollar of assets produces 0.5% of profit.

## Growth
- **Revenue growth (1 yr): 9.8%** (3-yr 19.8%/yr, 5-yr 41.3%/yr). Revenue grew 9.8% over the last year, against 41.3% a year compounded over five years: growth is slowing.
- **EPS growth (1 yr): 212.5%** (3-yr -5.0%/yr, 5-yr -26.0%/yr). Earnings per share rose 212.5%, faster than revenue, so margins expanded or the share count shrank.

## Financial health
- **Debt to equity: 1.08**. Debt is 1.08 times equity, a leveraged balance sheet that needs steady cash flow to service.
- **Net debt / EBITDA: 4.2×**. It would take 4.2 years of operating earnings to repay net borrowings, above the 3× level most lenders treat as comfortable.
- **Altman Z-score: 2.67**. A Z-score of 2.67 is in the grey zone; not distressed, not clearly safe.
