Return on Invested Capital (ROIC)
ROIC measures how efficiently a company generates profit from its total invested capital (equity + debt). It is one of the most important quality metrics in stock valuation because companies that consistently earn ROIC above their WACC create economic value.
Fórmula
Ejemplo
A company with $500M in NOPAT and $3B in invested capital has an ROIC of 16.7%. If its WACC is 9%, the spread of 7.7% means every dollar invested creates significant value — a key signal in stock valuation that quality investors seek.
Por Qué Importa
ROIC vs. WACC spread is one of the most predictive indicators of long-term stock performance. In stock valuation, high and improving ROIC justifies higher growth assumptions and premium multiples. It separates value-creating businesses from value-destroying ones.
Cómo MiniValuator Usa Return on Invested Capital (ROIC)
MiniValuator reads ROIC as a core quality signal. A business that consistently earns a high ROIC is one whose growth actually creates value, which is what the quality side of a verdict looks for. It informs the quality read, not the discount rate.
