Earnings Yield
A company's earnings per share as a percentage of its share price, the inverse of P/E.
What it is
Earnings yield is earnings per share divided by share price, expressed as a percentage. It is simply the P/E ratio flipped upside down. It frames a stock's profitability as a percentage return, which makes it easy to compare against bond yields.
Why it matters
It lets investors line up a stock's earnings power directly against the yield on bonds or cash, a common way to judge whether stocks are attractive versus fixed income. Pitfalls: like P/E it is distorted by one-off items and is not meaningful when earnings are negative, and it ignores growth and cash conversion.
How it's calculated
Divide earnings per share by the current share price and multiply by 100, which is the same as dividing 1 by the P/E ratio.
How Quintarthai uses it
P/E and the underlying earnings are shown in the Summary Key-metrics grid and Ratios tab of a stock's company page, from which the earnings yield is simply the inverse.
