(TSE:FVI) Performance Keep Up Given Its Mixed Bag Of Fundamentals? > Fortuna Mining Corp. (TSE:FVI) has seen its stock rise by 8.9% over the past three months, but its fundamentals present a mixed picture. The company's return on equity (ROE) stands at 9.7%, below the industry average of 13%, and it has experienced a 21% decline in net income over the last five years. Despite retaining profits, there is no earnings growth, raising concerns about the company's efficiency in reinvesting. Analysts, however, expect future earnings growth, suggesting potential for improvement. Fortuna Mining's (TSE:FVI) stock up by 8.9% over the past three months. However, we decided to study the company's mixed-bag of fundamentals to assess what this could mean for future share prices, as stock prices tend to be aligned with a company's long-term financial performance. Specifically, we decided to study Fortuna Mining's ROE in this article. Return on equity or ROE is an important factor to be considered by a shareholder because it tells them how effectively their capital is being reinvested. In other words, it is a profitability ratio which measures the rate of return on the capital provided by the company's shareholders. Trump has pledged to "unleash" American oil and gas and these 15 US stocks have developments that are poised to benefit. ## How To Calculate Return On Equity? **Return on equity can be calculated by using the formula:** Return on Equity = Net Profit (from continuing operations) ÷ Shareholders' Equity So, based on the above formula, the ROE for Fortuna Mining is: 9.7% = US$142m ÷ US$1.5b (Based on the trailing twelve months to December 2024). The 'return' is the amount earned after tax over the last twelve months. Another way to think of that is that for every CA$1 worth of equity, the company was able to earn CA$0.10 in profit. Check out our latest analysis for Fortuna Mining ## What Has ROE Got To Do With Earnings Growth? Thus far, we have learned that ROE measures how efficiently a company is generating its profits. Depending on how much of these profits the company reinvests or "retains", and how effectively it does so, we are then able to assess a company’s earnings growth potential. Generally speaking, other things being equal, firms with a high return on equity and profit retention, have a higher growth rate than firms that don’t share these attributes. ## Fortuna Mining's Earnings Growth And 9.7% ROE At first glance, Fortuna Mining's ROE doesn't look very promising. Next, when compared to the average industry ROE of 13%, the company's ROE leaves us feeling even less enthusiastic. Given the circumstances, the significant decline in net income by 21% seen by Fortuna Mining over the last five years is not surprising. However, there could also be other factors causing the earnings to decline. For instance, the company has a very high payout ratio, or is faced with competitive pressures. That being said, we compared Fortuna Mining's performance with the industry and were concerned when we found that while the company has shrunk its earnings, the industry has grown its earnings at a rate of 21% in the same 5-year period. Earnings growth is a huge factor in stock valuation. The investor should try to establish if the expected growth or decline in earnings, whichever the case may be, is priced in. By doing so, they will have an idea if the stock is headed into clear blue waters or if swampy waters await. What is FVI worth today?

Because Fortuna Mining doesn't pay any regular dividends, we infer that it is retaining all of its profits, which is rather perplexing when you consider the fact that there is no earnings growth to show for it. So there could be some other explanations in that regard. For instance, the company's business may be deteriorating. ## Conclusion In total, we're a bit ambivalent about Fortuna Mining's performance. While the company does have a high rate of reinvestment, the low ROE means that all that reinvestment is not reaping any benefit to its investors, and moreover, its having a negative impact on the earnings growth. With that said, we studied the latest analyst forecasts and found that while the company has shrunk its earnings in the past, analysts expect its earnings to grow in the future.
