# Huntsman Corporation (HUN) fundamentals

Data as of 2026-09-08. NYSE, United States. Sector: Basic Materials / Chemicals. Price $9.62, market value $1.7 billion.

## Valuation
- **P/E (trailing): n/a** (negative earnings). Huntsman Corporation 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.
- **Price / sales: 0.3×**. Each dollar of revenue is priced at 0.3×, a low multiple typical of thin-margin businesses or out-of-favour stocks.
- **Price / book: 0.6×**. The shares trade below book value, which can signal a bargain or a balance sheet the market doubts.
- **EV / EBITDA: 11.8×**. Enterprise value is 11.8× operating earnings before depreciation, the multiple that ignores how the company is financed.
- **Free-cash-flow yield: -0.5%** (5-yr avg 6.5%). Free cash flow is negative: the business is consuming cash, which is normal for heavy investment phases but a warning otherwise.

## Profitability
- **Gross margin: 13.5%**. Huntsman Corporation keeps 13.5% of revenue after the direct cost of what it sells, a thin margin typical of retail, distribution and commodity businesses.
- **Operating margin: -0.8%**. Operating margin is negative: the business loses money before interest and tax.
- **Net margin: -5.0%**. The company reported a net loss over the last twelve months.
- **Return on equity: -10.3%**. Return on equity is negative because earnings are negative.
- **Return on invested capital: -0.8%**. Return on all capital, debt included, is -0.8%: close to or below the cost of capital, so growth may not create value.
- **Return on assets: -2.6%**. Each dollar of assets produces -2.6% of profit.

## Growth
- **Revenue growth (1 yr): -5.8%** (3-yr -10.9%/yr, 5-yr 0.9%/yr). Revenue fell 5.8% over the last year, against 0.9% a year compounded over five years: growth is slowing.
- **EPS growth (1 yr): -50.0%**. Earnings per share fell 50.0%, slower than revenue, so margins compressed.
- **Free-cash-flow growth (3 yr): -43.5%/yr**. Free cash flow has compounded at -43.5% a year over three years.

## Financial health
- **Debt to equity: 0.73**. Debt is 0.73 times equity, moderate leverage.
- **Net debt / EBITDA: 5.7×**. It would take 5.7 years of operating earnings to repay net borrowings, above the 3× level most lenders treat as comfortable.
- **Altman Z-score: 1.55**. A Z-score of 1.55 is in the distress zone, a signal to examine the balance sheet closely.
