# Exelon Corporation (EXC) fundamentals

Data as of 2026-09-08. NASDAQ, United States. Sector: Utilities / Multi-Utilities. Price $43.64, market value $45.0 billion.

## Valuation
- **P/E (trailing): 16.0×** (5-yr avg 20.1×). Exelon Corporation trades at 16.0× trailing earnings, well below its own five-year average of 20.1×: cheap by its own standards. The Utilities median in the September 2026 study was 21.2×. Forward P/E is 14.4×, lower than trailing, so analysts expect earnings to grow.
- **Price / sales: 1.8×**. Each dollar of revenue is priced at 1.8×.
- **Price / book: 1.5×**. The shares trade at 1.5× book value; book value is a meaningful part of the valuation.
- **EV / EBITDA: 10.2×**. Enterprise value is 10.2× operating earnings before depreciation, the multiple that ignores how the company is financed.
- **Free-cash-flow yield: -4.3%** (5-yr avg -7.7%). Free cash flow is negative: the business is consuming cash, which is normal for heavy investment phases but a warning otherwise.
- **Earnings yield: 6.2%**. The inverse of the P/E: 6.2% of the price is earned each year.

## Profitability
- **Operating margin: 20.8%**. 20.8% of revenue is left after running the business, a healthy level in most sectors.
- **Net margin: 11.4%**. 11.4% of each dollar of sales reaches the bottom line.
- **Return on equity: 9.6%**. 9.6% on shareholders' equity is weak; the business earns little on the capital its owners have in it.
- **Return on invested capital: 5.4%**. Return on all capital, debt included, is 5.4%: close to or below the cost of capital, so growth may not create value.

## Financial health

- **Net debt / EBITDA: 5.3×**. It would take 5.3 years of operating earnings to repay net borrowings, above the 3× level most lenders treat as comfortable.
