Bristol-Myers Squibb Company's share price was $61.71 at the close on 3 November 2026. It has been rising for 4 weeks. That is 2.8% above its average price over the last 200 trading days. In the last 52 weeks it traded between $46 and $67, and at that close it sat 74% of the way up from that low. Over the past 13 weeks it has done worse than the S&P 500, and it has been behind for 5 weeks running. Over the last 10 years the share price moved −18% while the S&P 500 moved +255%, so it is behind the index over that whole period. It was last ahead over 13 weeks in the week of 2 October 2026. The chart above shows the 13-week comparison for every week. This page treats a rise as over when the price closes below its 200-day average on two Fridays in a row. ## What dividend does Bristol-Myers Squibb pay?

## Is Bristol-Myers Squibb profitable? Bristol-Myers Squibb Company earned $3.3 B of net profit in the Jun 2026 quarter, +153.2% on the same quarter a year earlier. That is the 4th quarter in a row of profit growth. Full-year FY25 profit was $7.1 B. Over 4 years profit has grown 0.2% a year on average. That is 25.6% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier earned $1.3 B. 1 of the last 12 reported quarters were loss-making. Why profit moved: revenue changed +5.7% on a year earlier and the margin moved +0.7 percentage points. Sales did the work, and the margin was about flat. On average over the last four quarters, profit changed +413.4% and revenue +3.1%. Profit is growing faster than sales: fixed costs are spread over more sales, so each extra dollar of revenue adds more to profit. ## How much revenue does Bristol-Myers Squibb make, and is it growing? Bristol-Myers Squibb Company reported $13.0 B of revenue in the Jun 2026 quarter, +5.7% on the same quarter a year earlier. That is the 5th quarter in a row with growth on the year before. Over 4 years it has grown 1.0% a year on average. The last full year, FY25, came in at $48.2 B. The last four reported quarters add to $49.2 B. FY25 revenue was $48.2 B, −0.2% on the year before. Recent pace: the last four quarters grew +3.1% on average, against 1.0% a year over the longer run, so this year is growing faster than its own long-run rate. Is growth speeding up? Revenue over the last 12 months grew +3.1%, against +2.8% a year over the last 8 quarters (stabilising). ## How much of every $100 of sales does Bristol-Myers Squibb keep? Bristol-Myers Squibb Company's operating margin was 34.4% in the Jun 2026 quarter, 0.7 percentage points higher than the same quarter a year ago. Its latest full-year margin is the highest it has ever reported. Across 5 years it has been between 18.5% and 31.2%. The latest quarter is above every full year in that period. Across 5 years it has been between 18.5% and 31.2%, and FY25's 31.2% is the highest of them. Why the margin moved: operating margin changed +0.7 percentage points on the year while gross margin changed −1.2 points. So the gain came mostly from the gross margin, which means input costs and prices charged. As noted under valuation: when margins are at a record, every ratio built on profit looks better than usual, so a low multiple can mislead. ## Is Bristol-Myers Squibb's profit turning into cash? Over the last 3 years, 192% of Bristol-Myers Squibb Company's reported profit came in as cash from its operations, so the profit is backed by cash. In FY25 it brought in $14.2 B of operating cash against $7.1 B of profit. After $1.3 B of spending on assets, $12.8 B was left over as free cash. Cash-flow figures here are yearly, because quarterly cash statements are not published, so this section changes once a year. Why: the cash figure is clear, but the day counts behind it are not in our data, so we show it without guessing the reason. What to look at next: the main use of cash is spending on assets. The next section checks what that spending is building. ## Where does Bristol-Myers Squibb's cash go? Bristol-Myers Squibb Company does not report the customer, stock and supplier day counts a cash cycle needs, so this section looks at its spending on assets instead. It spent $3.8 B on assets over the last 3 years. Averaged over those years that is 2.6% of FY25 revenue a year. Nothing is estimated in place of the missing day counts, so no cash-cycle chart is drawn. Spending on assets: $3.8 B over the last 3 years. In short: the cash is going into new capacity, not getting stuck in the daily cycle. The question is whether the new capacity earns. ## What is Bristol-Myers Squibb's P/E ratio, and how does it compare with its own history? Bristol-Myers Squibb Company's P/E is 13.7×, near the low end of its own history: it has been lower only 23% of the time. Its usual P/E (the middle reading) is 17.0×, over 4.6 years of weekly prices. This compares the share price with the company’s own past. It does not say what the business is worth. Keep one thing in mind: margins are the best this company has ever reported. A multiple that looks low against its own past can mislead when profit is at a record. If margins fall back, today's multiple is higher than it looks. Where the price move came from: over 3 years the price moved +5.3% a year; about +4.8% a year came from earnings growth and about +0.5 percentage points from the multiple (roughly no change). The split is approximate (price return minus earnings growth). It shows how much of the move came from the market paying a different multiple. In short: the multiple is low against its own past, so the earnings trend underneath matters more than the multiple. ## Is the Bristol-Myers Squibb business getting better or worse? Bristol-Myers Squibb Company's business is getting better. Profit growth hit its low 6 quarters ago at −199.6% and has recovered to +83.8%, with ROCE rising at 23.0%. This is based on 12 quarters of 4 measures. Why it matters: a lasting rise from a low is what this page is built to show. ## How much does Bristol-Myers Squibb earn on its capital? Bristol-Myers Squibb Company earned a ROE of 38% in FY25. That is up from a low of −55% in FY24. Its return on capital used (ROIC) is 18.9 percentage points above its cost of capital, so growth here adds value, not just size. It comes from a 14.6% net margin and 0.54× asset turnover (sales divided by assets). Why the return is what it is (FY25): a 14.6% net margin × 0.54× asset turnover × 4.87× leverage (assets divided by equity) ≈ 38.4% on equity. The margin does its share; borrowing is a big part of it. The key test, return on capital used minus the cost of capital: 23.6% − 4.7% = +18.9 percentage points. The 4.7% is an estimate of this company's own cost of capital. Read the sign and size of the gap, not the decimals. A gap this wide means each dollar put back into the business creates more than a dollar of value. The 23.6% ROIC above is the latest reading, as reported. The yearly chart below shows FY25 at 20.4%, and the quarterly chart works out each 12-month window from the quarterly figures, so the readings differ by date, not by method. ## Does Bristol-Myers Squibb have too much debt? Bristol-Myers Squibb Company has total debt of $45.1 B against shareholder equity of $22.3 B as of Jun 2026, so its debt is 2.02× its equity. Year by year, that ratio went from 1.27 in FY21 to 2.55 in FY25. Keep that borrowing in mind when reading the returns on this page. ## What is the Bristol-Myers Squibb shareholding pattern? 2.5% of Bristol-Myers Squibb Company's tradable shares are in short positions, which are bets that the price will fall, so some traders are betting against it. At normal trading volumes, closing those positions would take about 3.5 days. US companies do not publish a quarter-by-quarter list of owners, so this page uses short interest instead. It is a single reading at one point in time; we do not have its history. Why it is at this level: the figure does not say who holds the short positions or why, so we show the level without guessing the story. ## How far is Bristol-Myers Squibb from balance-sheet trouble? For Bristol-Myers Squibb Company, the Z-score is 2.71. A Z-score above about 3 is safe and below about 1.8 signals danger, so this is in the grey area between the two. It estimates how far the balance sheet is from trouble; it is not a forecast of failure. Why it matters: a Z-score of 2.71 is in the grey area, neither clearly safe nor clearly in trouble. ## How does Bristol-Myers Squibb rank in its industry? 59.0 out of 100, rank 6 of 16 in Drug Manufacturers - General, with 81% of the evidence available. Bristol-Myers Squibb Company scores 59.0 out of 100 against the 16 companies it is compared with in Drug Manufacturers - General, ranking 6. The evidence is balanced: no factor stands out, so another reported quarter is needed before the picture is clearer. The four parts add up to the total exactly: 22.6 + 18.1 + 14.3 + 4 = 59. This is the same number shown on the industry page; it is worked out once for the whole group and read here. What would change it: The score would fall if profit growth turns negative or margins stop improving while the share price lags its sector. ## Which companies is Bristol-Myers Squibb compared with? Bristol-Myers Squibb ranks 6 of 16 Drug Manufacturers - General companies on the 4-Factor Sector Score, with 59.0 out of 100. 1.

Missing figures are not scored as bad. They lower the confidence and pull the final score toward the middle. Relative strength counts only when the company has a reading for this week; with no reading, that factor is left out and its 20 points are shared across the other three in proportion. PEG is not shown when the ratio cannot mean anything: the company must be making a profit, its price-to-earnings must be positive, and its three-year earnings growth must fall between 5% and 60%. Dividing a price multiple by a loss, or by growth measured off a tiny base, produces a number that looks precise and tells you nothing. Under relative strength, one mark per week shows the last 12 weeks: a mark is filled where the company led S&P 500 by 5% or more over the 13 weeks ending that week, which is the same test used everywhere on this site. Price stage places the company on the same six-step path the industry is placed on (basing, turning, breaking out, leader, fading, asleep), read from how many weeks running it has led S&P 500 and whether that lead is growing or shrinking. It describes where the share price stands, not the direction of earnings, and it is not a recommendation; it is left blank for a company whose weekly history is too short or too stale to read. The figures in this ranking come from the industry comparison: results through the Sep 2026 quarter, and the P/E at that quarter's end. The sections above use the latest weekly price, so a P/E or return there can differ a little from the one here. The stage words in this ranking (such as losing its lead or breaking out) describe the lead over the index, not the price phase in the price section.
