ROICs, How They Change, and Shareholder Returns

This report extends our analysis of the return on invested capital (ROIC) for public companies in the U.S. and updates the data to cover the years 1990 to 2022.
We examine the relationship between changes in ROIC and total shareholder returns (TSRs) and generally find that increases in ROIC are associated with attractive TSRs and decreases with poor TSRs.
We analyze the movement of companies from one quintile of ROIC to another and observe that those that meaningfully change their ranking often provide opportunity for outsized returns.
We quantify the rate of regression toward the mean for various sectors, which offers insight into why companies in certain sectors trade at higher valuations than those in other sectors.
Companies that delivered high and sustained ROICs exceeded their peers in both net operating profit after taxes (NOPAT) margin and invested capital turnover, but NOPAT margin was a significantly more important driver.
