# X-Energy Inc. (XE) fundamentals

Data as of 2026-09-08. NASDAQ, United States. Sector: Industrials / Machinery. Price $17.71, market value $5.1 billion.

## Valuation
- **P/E (trailing): n/a** (negative earnings). X-Energy Inc. reported negative earnings over the last twelve months, so the P/E is not meaningful; use price-to-sales, EV/EBITDA and free-cash-flow yield instead.
- **Price / sales: 36.3×**. Each dollar of revenue is priced at 36.3×, a level that requires very high margins or very fast growth to justify.
- **Free-cash-flow yield: -7.2%**. Free cash flow is negative: the business is consuming cash, which is normal for heavy investment phases but a warning otherwise.

## Profitability
- **Operating margin: -174.7%**. Operating margin is negative: the business loses money before interest and tax.
- **Net margin: -150.8%**. The company reported a net loss over the last twelve months.
- **Return on equity: -9.9%**. Return on equity is negative because earnings are negative.
- **Return on invested capital: 76.6%**. Return on all capital, debt included, is 76.6%: comfortably above what that capital costs.
- **Return on assets: -10.9%**. Each dollar of assets produces -10.9% of profit.

## Growth
- **Revenue growth (1 yr): 12.2%** (3-yr 7.0%/yr). Revenue grew 12.2% over the last year.
- **EPS growth (1 yr): -17.2%**. Earnings per share fell 17.2%, slower than revenue, so margins compressed.

## Financial health
- **Debt to equity: 0.01**. Debt is 0.01 times equity: a conservative balance sheet.
- **Current ratio: 32.22** (quick 32.22). Current assets cover the next year's liabilities 32.22 times.
- **Altman Z-score: 34.85**. A Z-score of 34.85 places the company in the safe zone for bankruptcy risk.

## Price and momentum

- **Beta (1 yr): 3.29** (volatility 102%). Beta of 3.29 against the S&P 500: the shares move much more than the market.
