## Valuation
- **P/E (trailing): 4.9×** (5-yr avg 19.2×, 3-yr avg 27.8×). Adams Natural Resources Fund Inc. trades at 4.9× trailing earnings, well below its own five-year average of 19.2×: cheap by its own standards.

- **Price / sales: 14.0×**. Each dollar of revenue is priced at 14.0×, a level that requires very high margins or very fast growth to justify.
- **Price / book: 1.1×**. The shares trade at 1.1× book value; book value is a meaningful part of the valuation.
- **Earnings yield: 20.3%**. The inverse of the P/E: 20.3% of the price is earned each year.

## Profitability
- **Net margin: 93.5%**. 93.5% of each dollar of sales reaches the bottom line.
- **Return on equity: 8.3%**. 8.3% on shareholders' equity is weak; the business earns little on the capital its owners have in it.
