Resideo Technologies's Return On Capital Employed Overview

According to Benzinga Pro, during Q1, Resideo Technologies (NYSE:REZI) earned $87.00 million, a 29.85% increase from the preceding quarter. Resideo Technologies also posted a total of $1.51 billion in sales, a 3.58% increase since Q4. Resideo Technologies earned $67.00 million, and sales totaled $1.45 billion in Q4.

What Is ROCE?

Earnings data without context is not clear and can be difficult to base trading decisions on. Return on Capital Employed (ROCE) helps to filter signal from noise by measuring yearly pre-tax profit relative to capital employed by a business. Generally, a higher ROCE suggests successful growth of a company and is a sign of higher earnings per share in the future. In Q1, Resideo Technologies posted an ROCE of 0.04%.

It is important to keep in mind that ROCE evaluates past performance and is not used as a predictive tool. It is a good measure of a company's recent performance, but does not account for factors that could affect earnings and sales in the near future.

ROCE is a powerful metric for comparing the effectiveness of capital allocation for similar companies. A relatively high ROCE shows Resideo Technologies is potentially operating at a higher level of efficiency than other companies in its industry. If the company is generating high profits with its current level of capital, some of that money can be reinvested in more capital which will generally lead to higher returns and, ultimately, earnings per share (EPS) growth.

For Resideo Technologies, the positive return on capital employed ratio of 0.04% suggests that management is allocating their capital effectively. Effective capital allocation is a positive indicator that a company will achieve more durable success and favorable long-term returns.
