The main question: the share price moved +48.3% in a year while yearly earnings per share moved −62.4%.

Over the past 13 weeks it has done better than the S&P 500, and it has stayed ahead for 5 weeks in a row. Over the last 1 year the share price moved +6% while the S&P 500 moved +21%, so it is behind the index over that whole period. The chart above shows the 13-week comparison for every week.

## Is Donnelley Financial Solutions profitable? Donnelley Financial Solutions, Inc. earned $36.4 M of net profit in the Jun 2026 quarter, +0.8% on the same quarter a year earlier. That is the 2nd quarter in a row of profit growth. Full-year FY25 profit was $32.4 M. Over 4 years profit has grown −31.4% a year on average. That is 16.2% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier earned $36.1 M. 1 of the last 12 reported quarters were loss-making. For the full year, FY25 profit was $32.4 M (−64.9% on the year before). Why profit moved: revenue changed +2.8% on a year earlier and the margin moved +1.4 percentage points. Sales did the work, and the margin was about flat. On average over the last four quarters, profit changed −140.7% and revenue +3.3%. Profit is growing slower than sales: rising costs are taking part of the growth. ## How much revenue does Donnelley Financial Solutions make, and is it growing? Donnelley Financial Solutions, Inc. reported $224 M of revenue in the Jun 2026 quarter, +2.8% on the same quarter a year earlier. That is the 3rd quarter in a row with growth on the year before. Over 4 years it has grown −6.3% a year on average. The last full year, FY25, came in at $767 M. The last four reported quarters add to $778 M. FY25 revenue was $767 M, −1.9% on the year before. Recent pace: the last four quarters grew +3.3% on average, against −6.3% 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 +3.0%, against −1.6% a year over the last 8 quarters (accelerating); profit over the last 12 months grew −57.1%, against −42.4% a year (rolling over). ## How much of every $100 of sales does Donnelley Financial Solutions keep? Donnelley Financial Solutions, Inc.'s operating margin was 25.8% in the Jun 2026 quarter, 1.4 percentage points higher than the same quarter a year ago. Across 5 years it has been between 15.7% and 23.8%. The latest quarter is above every full year in that period. Why the margin moved: operating margin changed +1.4 percentage points on the year while gross margin changed +2.3 points. So the gain came mostly from the gross margin, which means input costs and prices charged. ## Is Donnelley Financial Solutions' profit turning into cash? Over the last 3 years, 222% of Donnelley Financial Solutions, Inc.'s reported profit came in as cash from its operations, so the profit is backed by cash. In FY25 it brought in $165 M of operating cash against $32.4 M of profit. After $57.1 M of spending on assets, $108 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. 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 Donnelley Financial Solutions' cash go? Donnelley Financial Solutions, 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 $185 M on assets over the last 3 years. Averaged over those years that is 8.0% 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: $185 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 Donnelley Financial Solutions' P/E ratio, and how does it compare with its own history? Donnelley Financial Solutions, Inc.'s P/E is 18.1×, with too little history to compare. This compares the share price with the company’s own past. It does not say what the business is worth. Why the multiple is where it is: over the past year earnings per share moved −62.4% while the price moved +48.3%. The price did better than earnings, which pushed the multiple up within its own range. 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 Donnelley Financial Solutions business getting better or worse? Donnelley Financial Solutions, Inc.'s business is giving mixed signals. Profit and EPS growth are shrinking while ROCE is steady at 23.6%, so growth and returns point different ways. This is based on 12 quarters of 4 measures. Why it matters: when the lines disagree, each line above matters more than any single label. ## How much does Donnelley Financial Solutions earn on its capital? Donnelley Financial Solutions, Inc. earned a ROE of 9% in FY25. Its return on capital used (ROIC) is 12.2 percentage points above its cost of capital, so growth here adds value, not just size. It comes from a 4.2% net margin and 0.96× asset turnover (sales divided by assets). Why the return is what it is (FY25): a 4.2% net margin × 0.96× asset turnover × 2.11× leverage (assets divided by equity) ≈ 8.5% 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: 20.5% − 8.3% = +12.2 percentage points. The 8.3% 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. ## Does Donnelley Financial Solutions have too much debt? Donnelley Financial Solutions, Inc. has total debt of $212 M against shareholder equity of $387 M as of Jun 2026, so its debt is 0.55× its equity. Year by year, that ratio went from 0.50 in FY21 to 0.48 in FY25. Keep that borrowing in mind when reading the returns on this page. ## What is the Donnelley Financial Solutions shareholding pattern? 3.6% of Donnelley Financial Solutions, 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 3.6 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 Donnelley Financial Solutions from balance-sheet trouble? For Donnelley Financial Solutions, Inc., the Z-score is 4.76. A Z-score above about 3 is safe and below about 1.8 signals danger, so this is well clear of danger. It estimates how far the balance sheet is from trouble; it is not a forecast of failure. Why it matters: a Z-score of 4.76 is well clear of the danger zone, so the balance sheet is not the risk here. ## How does Donnelley Financial Solutions rank in its industry?
