# The Manitowoc Company Inc. (MTW) fundamentals

Data as of 2026-09-08. NYSE, United States. Sector: Industrials / Machinery. Price $21.41, market value $772 million.

## Valuation
- **P/E (trailing): 38.2×** (5-yr avg 35.3×, 3-yr avg 27.0×). The Manitowoc Company Inc. trades at 38.2× trailing earnings, close to its own five-year average of 35.3×. The Industrials median in the September 2026 study was 25.7×. Forward P/E is 23.4×, lower than trailing, so analysts expect earnings to grow.
- **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: 1.1×**. The shares trade at 1.1× book value; book value is a meaningful part of the valuation.
- **EV / EBITDA: 8.8×**. Enterprise value is 8.8× operating earnings before depreciation, the multiple that ignores how the company is financed.
- **Free-cash-flow yield: 9.0%** (5-yr avg 1.1%). Free cash flow equals 9.0% of the market value, above its five-year average of 1.1%, so the shares are cheaper on cash than they have usually been. Above 5% is generally attractive.
- **Earnings yield: 2.6%**. The inverse of the P/E: 2.6% of the price is earned each year.

## Profitability
- **Gross margin: 18.7%**. The Manitowoc Company Inc. keeps 18.7% of revenue after the direct cost of what it sells, a thin margin typical of retail, distribution and commodity businesses.
- **Operating margin: 3.1%**. 3.1% of revenue is left after running the business, which leaves little cushion in a downturn.
- **Net margin: 0.3%**. 0.3% of each dollar of sales reaches the bottom line.
- **Return on equity: 1.0%**. 1.0% on shareholders' equity is weak; the business earns little on the capital its owners have in it.
- **Return on invested capital: 5.3%**. Return on all capital, debt included, is 5.3%: close to or below the cost of capital, so growth may not create value.
- **Return on assets: 1.1%**. Each dollar of assets produces 1.1% of profit.

## Growth
- **Revenue growth (1 yr): 2.9%** (3-yr 3.3%/yr, 5-yr 9.2%/yr). Revenue grew 2.9% over the last year, against 9.2% a year compounded over five years: growth is slowing.
- **EPS growth (1 yr): -87.2%**. Earnings per share fell 87.2%, slower than revenue, so margins compressed.

## Financial health
- **Debt to equity: 0.69**. Debt is 0.69 times equity, moderate leverage.
- **Net debt / EBITDA: 3.0×**. It would take 3.0 years of operating earnings to repay net borrowings, above the 3× level most lenders treat as comfortable.
- **Piotroski F-score: 4/9**. 4 of 9 checks pass: mixed.

## Dividends
- **Dividend: none**. The Manitowoc Company Inc. does not currently pay a dividend.

## Price and momentum
- **Total return (1 yr): 112.8%** (YTD 78.6%, 3-mo 80.7%). The shares are up 112.8% over twelve months including dividends.
- **From 52-week high: -0.4%** (121.6% above the low). Trading within 5% of its 52-week high.
- **200-day average: above**. The price sits above its 200-day moving average, the usual definition of an uptrend.
- **RSI (14-day): 72**. An RSI of 72 is in overbought territory; short-term pullbacks are common from here.
- **Beta (1 yr): 1.63** (volatility 54%). Beta of 1.63 against the S&P 500: the shares move much more than the market.
