Free Cash Flow Yield is the ratio of free cash flow per share to the stock price, expressed as a percentage. It is the inverse of the P/FCF multiple and provides a direct yield-based measure of stock valuation — analogous to a bond's current yield but based on cash generation rather than coupon payments.
A stock trading at $100 per share with $6 in annual FCF per share has an FCF yield of 6%. When FCF yield is above the 10-year Treasury yield by a sufficient margin, the stock may be attractively valued. This is a widely used shortcut in stock valuation screening.
FCF yield provides an intuitive, rate-comparable measure for stock valuation. Rising interest rates make high FCF yields less attractive (bonds compete); falling rates make the same yield more compelling. It is particularly useful for comparing stocks to bonds when assessing relative value.
MiniValuator displays FCF yield as part of the key financial metrics panel on each ticker page, giving investors a quick stock valuation reference alongside the DCF-based intrinsic value estimate.
