Biggest thing to watch: the price is not yet in a clear uptrend, so timing is the risk more than the business. ## What is the Compass Minerals International share price today? Compass Minerals International, Inc.'s share price was $22.89 at the close on 3 November 2026. That is 11.8% below its average price over the last 200 trading days. In the last 52 weeks it traded between $17 and $32, and at that close it sat 39% 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 14 weeks running. Over the last 1 year the share price moved +2% while the S&P 500 moved +21%, so it is behind the index over that whole period. It was last ahead over 13 weeks in the week of 31 July 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 Compass Minerals International pay? Compass Minerals International, Inc. has 3 quarters of declared dividends on file, too few for a 12-month total. The most recent declaration was $0.15 for Mar 2024. Compass Minerals International, Inc. declared a dividend in 3 of the last 12 reported quarters, most recently $0.15 for Mar 2024. That is fewer than four quarters, so no 12-month total is shown. ## Which stock lists is Compass Minerals International on? Compass Minerals International is not in the Nasdaq 100, the S&P 500 or the Dow Jones 30, and is not on the US tech stocks list. ## Is Compass Minerals International profitable? Compass Minerals International, Inc. posted a net loss of $5.7 M in the Jun 2026 quarter. The full FY25 year was a loss of $79.8 M. That loss is 2.6% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier lost $17.0 M. 10 of the last 12 reported quarters were loss-making. ## How much revenue does Compass Minerals International make, and is it growing? Compass Minerals International, Inc. reported $215 M of revenue in the Jun 2026 quarter, +0.3% on the same quarter a year earlier. Over 4 years it has grown 2.1% a year on average. The last full year, FY25, came in at $1.2 B. The last four reported quarters add to $1.3 B. FY25 revenue was $1.2 B, +11.3% on the year before. Recent pace: the last four quarters grew +7.5% on average, against 2.1% 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 +5.5%, against +6.4% a year over the last 8 quarters (stabilising). ## How much of every $100 of sales does Compass Minerals International keep? Compass Minerals International, Inc.'s operating margin was 5.1% in the Jun 2026 quarter, 2.8 percentage points lower than the same quarter a year ago. Across 5 years it has been between 4.0% and 9.3%. The latest quarter is within that range. Why the margin moved: operating margin changed −2.8 percentage points on the year while gross margin changed −1.6 points. So the drop came mostly from costs below the gross margin, such as staff and overheads, measured against sales. ## Is Compass Minerals International's profit turning into cash? Compass Minerals International, Inc.'s cash-flow history is too short to judge how much of its profit turns into cash. In FY25 it brought in $198 M of operating cash against −$79.8 M of profit. After $69.7 M of spending on assets, $128 M 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. 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 Compass Minerals International's cash go? Compass Minerals International, Inc. 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 $338 M on assets over the last 3 years. Averaged over those years that is 9.1% 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: $338 M 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 Compass Minerals International's P/E ratio, and how does it compare with its own history? Compass Minerals International, Inc.'s P/E is 54.5×, with too little history to compare. Its usual P/E (the middle reading) is 69.8×, over 7 months of weekly prices. This compares the share price with the company’s own past. It does not say what the business is worth. In short: there is too little history to say whether the multiple is high or low for this company, so the earnings trend underneath matters more than the multiple. ## Is the Compass Minerals International business getting better or worse? Compass Minerals International, Inc.'s business trend cannot be read yet. There are fewer than eight usable quarters of growth figures, so there is not enough history to read the trend. This is based on 12 quarters of 2 measures, with some gaps. Why it matters: with too little history, we say so rather than guess a direction. There are fewer than eight usable quarters, so this page does not guess a direction from so little history. ## How much does Compass Minerals International earn on its capital? Compass Minerals International, Inc. earned a ROE of −34% in FY25. That is up from a low of −65% in FY24. Its return on capital used (ROIC) is 2.6 percentage points below its cost of capital, so growth here does not yet pay for the capital it uses. It comes from a −6.4% net margin and 0.82× asset turnover (sales divided by assets). Why the return is what it is (FY25): a −6.4% net margin × 0.82× asset turnover × 6.49× leverage (assets divided by equity) ≈ −34.1% 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: 5.2% − 7.8% = −2.6 percentage points. The 7.8% is an estimate of this company's own cost of capital. Read the sign and size of the gap, not the decimals. Negative: growth at these returns loses value until returns improve. The 5.2% ROIC above is the latest reading, as reported. The yearly chart below shows FY25 at 6.4%, and the quarterly chart works out each 12-month window from the quarterly figures, so the readings differ by date, not by method. ## Does Compass Minerals International have too much debt? Compass Minerals International, Inc. has total debt of $775 M against shareholder equity of $264 M as of Jun 2026, so its debt is 2.94× its equity. Year by year, that ratio went from 3.38 in FY21 to 3.85 in FY25. Keep that borrowing in mind when reading the returns on this page. ## What is the Compass Minerals International shareholding pattern? 4.0% of Compass Minerals International, Inc.'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 4.3 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 Compass Minerals International from balance-sheet trouble? For Compass Minerals International, Inc., the Z-score is 1.92. 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 1.92 is in the grey area, neither clearly safe nor clearly in trouble. ## How does Compass Minerals International rank in its industry? 48.4 out of 100, rank 12 of 29 in Other Industrial Metals & Mining, with 74% of the evidence available. Compass Minerals International, Inc. scores 48.4 out of 100 against the 29 companies it is compared with in Other Industrial Metals & Mining, ranking 12. Relative strength against the index is -11.3%, and revenue and profit growth are weak. The four parts add up to the total exactly: 14.8 + 12 + 5.1 + 16.5 = 48.4. 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 Compass Minerals International compared with?

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.

Biggest thing to watch: the price is not yet in a clear uptrend, so timing is the risk more than the business. On price, this page treats a rise as over when the share price closes below its 200-day average on two Fridays in a row (as of 3 November 2026). ### Is Compass Minerals International a stock worth studying right now?
