Ideally, a business will show two trends; firstly a growing return on capital employed (ROCE) and secondly, an increasing amount of capital employed. If you see this, it typically means it's a company with a great business model and plenty of profitable reinvestment opportunities. That's why when we briefly looked at Kadant's NYSE:KAI ) ROCE trend, we were pretty happy with what we saw. Understanding Return On Capital Employed (ROCE) For those that aren't sure what ROCE is, it measures the amount of pre-tax profits a company can generate from the capital employed in its business. The formula for this calculation on Kadant is: Return on Capital Employed = Earnings Before Interest and Tax (EBIT) ÷ (Total Assets - Current Liabilities) 0.15 = US$166m ÷ (US$1.2b - US$42m) (Based on the trailing twelve months to December 2023) Thus, Kadant has an ROCE of 15%. In absolute terms, that's a satisfactory return, but compared to the Machinery industry average of 12% it's much better.
