# Solventum Corporation (SOLV) fundamentals

Data as of 2026-09-08. NYSE, United States. Sector: Healthcare / Health Care Technology. Price $91.69, market value $15.6 billion.

## Valuation
- **P/E (trailing): 11.2×** (5-yr avg 16.4×, 3-yr avg 16.4×). Solventum Corporation trades at 11.2× trailing earnings, well below its own five-year average of 16.4×: cheap by its own standards. The Healthcare median in the September 2026 study was 28.5×. Forward P/E is 12.7×, higher than trailing, so analysts expect earnings to fall.
- **PEG: 0.06**. A PEG of 0.06 means the P/E is low relative to expected earnings growth: the market is not paying much for that growth.
- **Price / sales: 1.9×**. Each dollar of revenue is priced at 1.9×.
- **Price / book: 3.2×**. The shares trade at 3.2× book value; book value is a meaningful part of the valuation.
- **EV / EBITDA: 7.7×**. Enterprise value is 7.7× operating earnings before depreciation, the multiple that ignores how the company is financed; below 8× is inexpensive for most sectors.
- **Free-cash-flow yield: -0.8%** (5-yr avg 3.5%). Free cash flow is negative: the business is consuming cash, which is normal for heavy investment phases but a warning otherwise.
- **Earnings yield: 8.9%**. The inverse of the P/E: 8.9% of the price is earned each year.

## Profitability
- **Gross margin: 54.7%**. Solventum Corporation keeps 54.7% of revenue after the direct cost of what it sells.
- **Operating margin: 25.0%**. 25.0% of revenue is left after running the business, a healthy level in most sectors.
- **Net margin: 18.7%**. 18.7% of each dollar of sales reaches the bottom line.
- **Return on equity: 30.8%**. 30.8% on shareholders' equity is excellent if it is not driven by leverage; sustained above 20% usually signals a competitive advantage.
- **Return on invested capital: 17.8%**. Return on all capital, debt included, is 17.8%: comfortably above what that capital costs.
- **Return on assets: 10.0%**. Each dollar of assets produces 10.0% of profit.

## Financial health

- **Net debt / EBITDA: 1.6×**. It would take 1.6 years of operating earnings to repay net borrowings, within the comfortable range.
- **Altman Z-score: 2.59**. A Z-score of 2.59 is in the grey zone; not distressed, not clearly safe.
