Income Statement Key Figures

Revenue and Revenue Growth

Revenue is the starting point of every income statement — it measures the total sales Sturm Ruger & Company generates from its core business. Revenue growth (expressed as year-over-year percentage change) is one of the most important indicators of business momentum. Sustained growth above 10 % annually is generally considered strong, while declining revenue is a serious warning sign that demands investigation.

Gross Margin

Gross margin = (Revenue − Cost of Goods Sold) ÷ Revenue. It reveals what percentage of each dollar of revenue Sturm Ruger & Company retains after direct production costs. High gross margins (above 50 %) are typical of asset-light businesses like software and brands, while capital-intensive industries like manufacturing often operate below 30 %. Compare Sturm Ruger & Company's gross margin to industry peers and track it over time to spot improving or deteriorating pricing power.

EBIT and EBIT Margin

EBIT measures operating profit — what remains after subtracting all operating expenses (including R&D, sales, and administrative costs) from gross profit. The EBIT margin shows this as a percentage of revenue. Because it excludes interest and taxes, EBIT allows fair comparisons between companies with different debt levels and tax jurisdictions. A rising EBIT margin indicates improving operational efficiency.

Net Income and Earnings Per Share (EPS)

Net income is the company's final profit after all expenses, interest, and taxes. Dividing net income by the number of shares outstanding gives you EPS — the single most influential metric in stock valuation. Consistent EPS growth is the primary driver of long-term stock price appreciation. Always check whether EPS growth comes from genuine profit improvement or from share buybacks reducing the share count.

Shares Outstanding

The total number of shares Sturm Ruger & Company has issued. A declining share count (through buybacks) boosts EPS and signals management confidence. A rising share count (through stock issuance) dilutes existing shareholders. Always monitor this number alongside EPS to get the full picture of per-share value creation.

Analyst Estimates

The projected figures represent consensus estimates from professional analysts. Compare these forecasts against Sturm Ruger & Company's historical growth rates to assess whether expectations are realistic. A company that consistently beats consensus estimates tends to see its stock price rewarded over time, while repeated misses erode investor confidence.

Sturm Ruger & Company stock margins

The company originally started in a small garage in Southport, Connecticut, where Ruger designed his first firearms. Ruger has achieved several milestones throughout its history. In the 1960s, the company revolutionized the handgun market with the introduction of the Ruger Number series, a line of revolvers that were popular among both sport shooters and law enforcement for their simplicity and reliability. In the 1980s, Ruger developed its first polymer-based pistol model, the Ruger P85, expanding its product portfolio. Ruger's business model focuses on producing firearms for the civilian and military markets. Their products are used by private citizens, law enforcement agencies, military, and security companies worldwide. Ruger is known for manufacturing semi-automatics, revolvers, shotguns, and rifles, as well as specialty weapons such as Tasers and air pistols. Another important aspect of the company is its exports of firearms to many countries around the world. Ruger has established itself as a reliable partner for armed forces and governments. In the past, Ruger has faced controversies related to the firearms trade and the use of firearms in crimes. However, Ruger has always emphasized its support for firearm regulation and the responsible use of firearms by its customers. Ruger is divided into three business segments: handguns, long guns, and professional firearms. Each section focuses on manufacturing and selling specific types of firearms. The handguns segment includes semi-automatic pistols, revolvers, and shotguns targeted at private buyers and law enforcement. These firearms are suitable for a variety of purposes, including self-defense, sports, and hunting. Long guns consist of rifles, carbines, and shotguns used for hunting large game species. They are also employed by military and law enforcement for specific tasks. Ruger's professional firearms business segment concentrates on developing and manufacturing specialty weapons for military, law enforcement, and security companies. This includes weapons like the Sturm-Ruger SR9 or the Sturm-Ruger 5.56mm rifle. Overall, Ruger offers a wide range of firearms suitable for almost any type of buyer. The company's products are renowned for their high quality, reliability, and innovation. In recent years, Ruger has increased its efforts in innovation and technology investments. The company has established a dedicated technology division focused on developing new products and improving existing ones. Ruger is a successful company with a long history in the firearms industry.

Sturm Ruger & Company Eulerpool Fair Value

Fair Value Estimate

What Is Fair Value?

Fair value is an estimate of what a stock is truly "worth" based on its financial fundamentals, independent of the current market price. If the calculated fair value is above the current share price, the stock may be undervalued — and vice versa. This chart shows three different fair value approaches so you can cross-check them against each other.

Earnings-Based Fair Value

Calculated by multiplying the current earnings per share (EPS) by the average historical P/E ratio over a selected multi-year period. The smoothing over several years filters out temporary spikes or dips. If this fair value exceeds the market price, it suggests the stock is cheap relative to its earning power.

Example: Fair Value (Earnings) 2022 = EPS 2022 × Average P/E 2019–2021

Revenue-Based Fair Value

Derived by multiplying revenue per share by the average historical price-to-sales ratio. This method is particularly useful for companies with volatile or temporarily depressed earnings, as revenue tends to be more stable than profits. It answers: "At what price has the market historically valued each dollar of this company's sales?"

Example: Fair Value (Revenue) 2022 = Revenue per Share 2022 × Average P/S 2019–2021

Dividend-Based Fair Value

Calculated by dividing the dividend per share by the average historical dividend yield. This approach is most relevant for mature, consistently dividend-paying companies. If the resulting fair value is higher than the current price, it implies the stock offers a better yield than its historical average.

Example: Fair Value (Dividend) 2022 = Dividend per Share 2022 ÷ Average Yield 2019–2021

How to Use This Chart

When all three fair value lines converge above the current price, it strengthens the case that the stock is undervalued. When they diverge, investigate why — it may indicate a structural shift in margins, payout policy, or growth rate. The forward estimates on the right extend the analysis using projected fundamentals, helping you assess whether the current price already reflects future growth expectations.

Sturm Ruger & Company annual returns

Details

Annual Return

What This Chart Shows

This chart breaks down 's total annual return into two components: price return (gains or losses from stock price movement) and dividend return (income received from dividend payments). Together, they represent the total return an investor would have earned in each calendar year.

Price Return

Price return measures the percentage change in 's stock price from January 1st to December 31st of each year. Positive bars indicate the stock appreciated; negative bars show a decline. This is the component most investors focus on, but it tells only part of the story — especially for dividend-paying stocks.

Dividend Return

Dividend return represents the income generated from dividends paid during the year, expressed as a percentage of the starting stock price. While it may seem small in any single year (typically 1–4 % for established companies), dividends compound significantly over decades and have historically contributed roughly 40 % of total stock market returns.

What to Look For

Examine how many years showed positive vs. negative returns to gauge consistency. A stock with mostly positive years and small drawdowns suggests lower risk. Also compare 's annual returns to a benchmark index — consistently outperforming the market is a hallmark of a strong investment. Pay attention to the worst years: understanding downside risk is just as important as chasing upside potential.
