Key Metrics
Powered by EODHDP/E (TTM)
21.3
P/E (Price-to-Earnings)Shows how much investors pay for each $1 of profit. We display the TTM P/E (Trailing Twelve Months) which uses actual earnings from the last 4 quarters. This is more reliable than Forward P/E which uses analyst estimates.
Calculation: 213.35 ÷ 10.03 = 21.3
TTM period through: 2025-12-31
Forward P/E (estimated): 19.4
Based on analyst estimates
Reference: Provider P/E (Trailing): 21.2
Yield (Fwd)
2.51%
Dividend YieldThe Forward yield (Fwd) shows the next announced annual dividend / current price — what you'd earn going forward. The Trailing yield (TTM) in the tooltip shows dividends actually paid in the last 12 months. Forward is shown as primary because it reflects the company's current commitment to shareholders.
Trailing Yield (TTM): 2.48%
Net Debt/EBITDA (TTM)
2.7x
Latest quarter: 12.7x
Net Debt / EBITDAA leverage ratio showing how many years of EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization) it would take to repay net debt. EBITDA approximates operating cash generation. Lower ratios (e.g., <3x) are generally safer; higher (e.g., >5x) may indicate more financial risk.
TTM through: 2025-12-31
Latest quarter (2025-12-31): 12.7x
The quarterly value can spike when quarterly EBITDA is very low (e.g., one-time charges).
Quick guide: <2x manageable, >4x can be risky (sector-dependent).
Payout (Fwd)
53.3%
Payout RatioDividends as a percentage of earnings. The Forward payout (Fwd) uses the announced dividend divided by actual past earnings (TTM) — it tells you if the company can afford what it promised. Very high payouts can be risky, especially if profits fall.
Announced dividend / actual earnings (TTM)
Payout (TTM): 51.5%
Cash Flow Payout (TTM): 35.9%
FCF Coverage (TTM): 2.19x
ROE
12.8%
ROE (Return on Equity)A profitability measure: how much profit is generated from shareholders’ equity. Higher isn’t always better if it comes from high debt.
EV/EBITDA
11.6x
EV/EBITDAA valuation ratio that compares total business value (including debt) to EBITDA. Lower can mean cheaper, but context matters.
Summary
Siemens is a high-quality global leader in industrial automation, digitalization, and electrification with excellent long-term fundamentals and a highly secure dividend. While the company boasts robust cash flow generation and a strong economic moat, the current valuation offers limited upside and the yield falls short of our strategy targets. Existing shareholders should maintain positions given the strong business quality, but new investors should wait for a better entry point.
Sector Context
Siemens operates as a diversified industrial conglomerate, generating revenue primarily through hardware and software solutions in automation, digitalization, smart infrastructure, and electrification. For dividend investors, the industrial sector can exhibit cyclicality, but Siemens mitigates this through a growing share of recurring software and service revenues, deep integration into critical global infrastructure, and long-term contracts.
