## Valuation
- **P/E (trailing): 8.3×** (5-yr avg 1629.3×, 3-yr avg 1996.8×). Murray Income Trust Plc trades at 8.3× trailing earnings, well below its own five-year average of 1629.3×: cheap by its own standards. The Financial Services median in the September 2026 study was 13.1×.
- **Price / sales: 5.8×**. Each dollar of revenue is priced at 5.8×.
- **Price / book: 1.0×**. The shares trade at 1.0× book value; book value is a meaningful part of the valuation.
- **EV / EBITDA: 6.8×**. Enterprise value is 6.8× operating earnings before depreciation, the multiple that ignores how the company is financed; below 8× is inexpensive for most sectors.
- **Free-cash-flow yield: 7.4%** (5-yr avg 0.0%). Free cash flow equals 7.4% of the market value, above its five-year average of 0.0%, so the shares are cheaper on cash than they have usually been. Above 5% is generally attractive.
- **Earnings yield: 12.1%**. The inverse of the P/E: 12.1% of the price is earned each year.

## Profitability

- **Net margin: 77.0%**. 77.0% of each dollar of sales reaches the bottom line.
- **Return on equity: 2.5%**. 2.5% on shareholders' equity is weak; the business earns little on the capital its owners have in it.
- **Return on invested capital: 14.7%**. Return on all capital, debt included, is 14.7%.
