Data as of 2026-09-08. NYSE, United States. Sector: Financial Services / Capital Markets. Price $11.75, market value $18.4 billion.

## Valuation
- **P/E (trailing): 97.9×** (5-yr avg 127.1×, 3-yr avg 127.1×). Blue Owl Capital Inc. trades at 97.9× trailing earnings, well below its own five-year average of 127.1×: cheap by its own standards. The Financial Services median in the September 2026 study was 13.1×. Forward P/E is 11.9×, lower than trailing, so analysts expect earnings to grow.
- **Price / sales: 6.2×**. Each dollar of revenue is priced at 6.2×.
- **Price / book: 4.0×**. The shares trade at 4.0× book value; book value is a meaningful part of the valuation.
- **Free-cash-flow yield: 7.2%** (5-yr avg 12.9%). Free cash flow equals 7.2% of the market value, below its five-year average of 12.9%, so the shares are pricier on cash than usual. Above 5% is generally attractive.
- **Earnings yield: 1.0%**. The inverse of the P/E: 1.0% of the price is earned each year.

## Profitability
- **Net margin: 2.7%**. 2.7% of each dollar of sales reaches the bottom line.
- **Return on equity: 3.6%**. 3.6% on shareholders' equity is weak; the business earns little on the capital its owners have in it.
- **Return on assets: 0.6%**. Each dollar of assets produces 0.6% of profit; low single digits are normal for banks and insurers.

## Growth
- **Revenue growth (1 yr): 25.0%** (3-yr 28.0%/yr, 5-yr 63.0%/yr). Revenue grew 25.0% over the last year, against 63.0% 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): 21.8%/yr**. Free cash flow has compounded at 21.8% a year over three years.

## Financial health
- **Piotroski F-score: 4/9**. 4 of 9 checks pass: mixed.
- **Cash and short-term investments: $195 million**. Leverage ratios are shown differently for banks and insurers, whose balance sheets are built on deposits and reserves; use return on equity and the regulatory capital in the filings instead.

- **Payout ratio: 693%** (45% of free cash flow). The dividend exceeds earnings (693% payout), though free cash flow still covers it.
