Franklin Electric Co., Inc.'s share price was $100.96 at the close on 3 November 2026. It has been rising for 1 week. That is 0.8% above its average price over the last 200 trading days. In the last 52 weeks it traded between $90 and $109, and at that close it sat 57% 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 10 weeks running. Over the last 10 years the share price moved +196% 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 28 August 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 Franklin Electric pay? Franklin Electric Co., Inc. paid $1.09 per share over the last four reported quarters. The most recent declaration was $0.28 for Jun 2026. At today's price of $100.96 that is a yield of 1.08%, based on dividends already paid, not a forecast. ## Which stock lists is Franklin Electric on? Franklin Electric 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 Franklin Electric profitable? Franklin Electric Co., Inc. earned $65.4 M of net profit in the Jun 2026 quarter, +9.2% on the same quarter a year earlier. That is the 3rd quarter in a row of profit growth. Full-year FY25 profit was $146 M. Over 4 years profit has grown −1.1% a year on average. That is 10.5% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier earned $59.9 M. For the full year, FY25 profit was $146 M (−18.4% on the year before). Why profit moved: revenue changed +6.0% on a year earlier and the margin moved +0.1 percentage points. Sales did the work, and the margin was about flat. On average over the last four quarters, profit changed −8.2% and revenue +7.4%. Profit is growing slower than sales: rising costs are taking part of the growth. ## How much revenue does Franklin Electric make, and is it growing? Franklin Electric Co., Inc. reported $623 M of revenue in the Jun 2026 quarter, +6.0% 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 6.4% a year on average. The last full year, FY25, came in at $2.1 B. The last four reported quarters add to $2.2 B. FY25 revenue was $2.1 B, +5.4% on the year before. Recent pace: the last four quarters grew +7.4% on average, against 6.4% a year over the longer run, so this year is growing at about the same pace as its own long-run rate. Is growth speeding up? Revenue over the last 12 months grew +7.4%, against +4.8% a year over the last 8 quarters (stabilising); profit over the last 12 months grew −13.1%, against −9.1% a year (rolling over). ## How much of every $100 of sales does Franklin Electric keep? Franklin Electric Co., Inc.'s operating margin was 15.4% in the Jun 2026 quarter, 0.1 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 11.4% and 12.8%. The latest quarter is above every full year in that period. Across 5 years it has been between 11.4% and 12.8%, and FY25's 12.8% is the highest of them. Why the margin moved: operating margin changed +0.1 percentage points on the year while gross margin changed +0.9 points. So the gain came mostly from the gross margin, which means input costs and prices charged. When margins are at a record, every ratio built on profit looks better than usual, so watch whether they hold. ## Is Franklin Electric's profit turning into cash? Over the last 3 years, 157% of Franklin Electric Co., Inc.'s reported profit came in as cash from its operations, so the profit is backed by cash. In FY25 it brought in $239 M of operating cash against $146 M of profit. After $45.3 M of spending on assets, $194 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 Franklin Electric's cash go? Franklin Electric Co., 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 $128 M on assets over the last 3 years. Averaged over those years that is 2.0% 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: $128 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 Franklin Electric's P/E ratio, and how does it compare with its own history? Franklin Electric Co., Inc.'s P/E is 22.7×, 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 −16.6% while the price moved +6.5%. The price did better than earnings, which pushed the multiple up within its own range. Where the price move came from: over 3 years the price moved +4.9% a year; about −5.6% a year came from earnings growth and about +10.5 percentage points from the multiple (the market paying more). 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: 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 Franklin Electric business getting better or worse? Franklin Electric Co., Inc.'s business is giving mixed signals. Profit and EPS growth are shrinking while ROCE is steady at 18.2%, 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 Franklin Electric earn on its capital? Franklin Electric Co., Inc. earned a ROE of 11% in FY25. Its return on capital used (ROIC) is 3.8 percentage points above its cost of capital, so growth here adds value, not just size. It comes from a 6.9% net margin and 1.10× asset turnover (sales divided by assets). Why the return is what it is (FY25): a 6.9% net margin × 1.10× asset turnover × 1.47× leverage (assets divided by equity) ≈ 11.2% on equity. The margin does its share; borrowing plays a small part, so this return is earned, not borrowed. The key test, return on capital used minus the cost of capital: 12.6% − 8.8% = +3.8 percentage points. The 8.8% is an estimate of this company's own cost of capital. Read the sign and size of the gap, not the decimals. Positive but thin: it creates value with little room for error. The 12.6% ROIC above is the latest reading, as reported. The yearly chart below shows FY25 at 15.4%, and the quarterly chart works out each 12-month window from the quarterly figures, so the readings differ by date, not by method. ## Does Franklin Electric have too much debt? Franklin Electric Co., Inc. has total debt of $308 M against shareholder equity of $1.4 B as of Jun 2026, so its debt is 0.22× its equity, which is very little. Year by year, that ratio went from 0.25 in FY21 to 0.18 in FY25. So the returns on this page come from the business, not from borrowed money. ## What is the Franklin Electric shareholding pattern? 1.8% of Franklin Electric Co., Inc.'s tradable shares are in short positions, which are bets that the price will fall, so very few traders are betting against this stock. At normal trading volumes, closing those positions would take about 2.0 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 Franklin Electric from balance-sheet trouble? For Franklin Electric Co., Inc., the Z-score is 4.38. 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 4.38 is well clear of the danger zone, so the balance sheet is not the risk here. ## How does Franklin Electric rank in its industry?

The score ranks a company within its industry: each measure is scored against the other members. Without that group there is no score, so none is shown. ## Which companies is Franklin Electric compared with?
