27% profit every 20 days?
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.
Pulled from Benzinga Pro data W&T Offshore (NYSE:WTI) posted a 15.31% decrease in earnings from Q1. Sales, however, increased by 5.72% over the previous quarter to $132.83 million. Despite the increase in sales this quarter, the decrease in earnings may suggest W&T Offshore is not utilizing their capital as effectively as possible. In Q1, W&T Offshore earned $39.63 million and total sales reached $125.65 million.

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, W&T Offshore posted an ROCE of -0.13%.
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 W&T Offshore's case, the ROCE ratio shows the amount of assets may not be helping the company achieve higher returns. Investors may take this into account before making any long-term financial decisions.
