NYSE:FMC
This summary was created by AI, based on 2 opinions in the last 12 months.
FMC Corp, which has seen a significant decline in its market cap by 47% over the past year, is currently trading at a low earnings multiple of 9X. Despite offering a substantial dividend yield of 7.2%, the company's high levels of debt, which exceeds 10X their recent cash flow, raise concerns. Earnings appear to be stagnant, with projections for 2026 EPS suggesting a decline compared to seven years ago. Although the recent quarterly performance was decent, ongoing negative free cash flow on a 12-month basis and potential economic slowdown could hinder future growth. Given these factors, experts recommend cautiousness around the stock, particularly with impending year-end tax selling, while also being puzzled over external assessments like those from Morningstar.

FMC, $4B market cap, down 47% in the past year, is very cheap at 9X earnings, with a 7.2% dividend. But debt is extremely high (more than 10X recent 12-month cash flow) and earnings have stalled. 2026E EPS is expected to be less than it was seven years ago. The Q2 was decent, but free cash flow has been running negative on a 12-month basis. It did affirm guidance, but this is really a debt issue. If the global economy slows, their business is not likely to see big growth, but of course the debt will still be there. Going into year end tax selling we would sit this one out. We have no idea how Morningstar sees it tripling.
