This is what Nic Chahine averages with his option buys. Not selling covered calls or spreads… BUYING options. Most traders don’t even have a winning percentage of 27% buying options. He has an 83% win rate. Here’s how he does it.
After pulling data from Benzinga Pro it seems like during Q2, Sterling Bancorp (NASDAQ:SBT) earned $22.41 million, a 1.47% increase from the preceding quarter. Sterling Bancorp's sales decreased to $23.33 million, a 1.48% change since Q1. In Q1, Sterling Bancorp earned $22.09 million, whereas sales reached $23.68 million.
Why ROCE Is Significant
Return on Capital Employed is a measure of yearly pre-tax profit relative to capital employed by a business. Changes in earnings and sales indicate shifts in a company's ROCE. A higher ROCE is generally representative of successful growth of a company and is a sign of higher earnings per share in the future. A low or negative ROCE suggests the opposite. In Q2, Sterling Bancorp posted an ROCE of 0.07%.
Keep in mind, while ROCE is a good measure of a company's recent performance, it is not a highly reliable predictor of a company's earnings or sales in the near future.
Return on Capital Employed is an important measurement of efficiency and a useful tool when comparing companies that operate in the same industry. A relatively high ROCE indicates a company may be generating profits that can be reinvested into more capital, leading to higher returns and growing EPS for shareholders.
In Sterling Bancorp's case, the positive ROCE ratio will be something investors pay attention to before making long-term financial decisions.
