# Weyerhaeuser Company (WY) fundamentals

Data as of 2026-09-08. NYSE, United States. Sector: Consumer Cyclical / Specialty Retail. Price $23.02, market value $16.6 billion.

## Valuation
- **P/E (trailing): 34.9×** (5-yr avg 30.0×, 3-yr avg 43.1×). Weyerhaeuser Company trades at 34.9× trailing earnings, close to its own five-year average of 30.0×. The Consumer Cyclical median in the September 2026 study was 19.5×. Forward P/E is 34.2×, lower than trailing, so analysts expect earnings to grow.
- **Price / sales: 2.4×**. Each dollar of revenue is priced at 2.4×.
- **Price / book: 1.8×**. The shares trade at 1.8× book value; book value is a meaningful part of the valuation.
- **EV / EBITDA: 16.0×**. Enterprise value is 16.0× operating earnings before depreciation, the multiple that ignores how the company is financed.
- **Earnings yield: 2.9%**. The inverse of the P/E: 2.9% of the price is earned each year.

## Profitability
- **Gross margin: 14.5%**. Weyerhaeuser Company keeps 14.5% of revenue after the direct cost of what it sells, a thin margin typical of retail, distribution and commodity businesses.
- **Operating margin: 12.3%**. 12.3% of revenue is left after running the business.
- **Net margin: 4.7%**. 4.7% of each dollar of sales reaches the bottom line.
- **Return on equity: 3.4%**. 3.4% on shareholders' equity is weak; the business earns little on the capital its owners have in it.
- **Return on invested capital: 4.6%**. Return on all capital, debt included, is 4.6%: close to or below the cost of capital, so growth may not create value.
- **Return on assets: 2.8%**. Each dollar of assets produces 2.8% of profit.

## Growth
- **Revenue growth (1 yr): -3.1%** (3-yr -12.1%/yr, 5-yr -1.7%/yr). Revenue fell 3.1% over the last year, against -1.7% a year compounded over five years: growth is slowing.
- **EPS growth (1 yr): -16.7%** (3-yr -43.8%/yr, 5-yr -15.9%/yr). Earnings per share fell 16.7%, slower than revenue, so margins compressed.

## Financial health
- **Debt to equity: 0.59**. Debt is 0.59 times equity, moderate leverage.
- **Net debt / EBITDA: 3.8×**. It would take 3.8 years of operating earnings to repay net borrowings, above the 3× level most lenders treat as comfortable.
- **Altman Z-score: 2.74**. A Z-score of 2.74 is in the grey zone; not distressed, not clearly safe.
- **Piotroski F-score: 4/9**. 4 of 9 checks pass: mixed.

## Dividends
- **Dividend yield: 3.65%** ($0.84 per share, trailing). Weyerhaeuser Company yields 3.65%, an income-level yield.
- **Payout ratio: 187%**. The dividend exceeds earnings (187% payout), which is rarely sustainable outside REITs and one-off years.
- **Dividend growth (5 yr): 10.5%/yr** (1-yr -10.6%). The dividend has compounded at 10.5% a year over five years, doubling roughly every 7 years at that pace.

- **From 52-week high: -17.0%** (8.8% above the low). Trading 17% below its 52-week high.
- **200-day average: below**. The price sits below its 200-day moving average, the usual definition of a downtrend.
- **RSI (14-day): 35**. An RSI of 35 is neutral.
- **Beta (1 yr): 0.34** (volatility 26%). Beta of 0.34 against the S&P 500: the shares move much less than the market.
