# StealthGas share price today (StealthGas Inc., GASS) > StealthGas Inc.'s share price, valuation and earnings point in different directions. The next one or two quarters should make it clearer. GASS · Industrials · Marine Shipping · data as of 3 November 2026. Page: https://www.sectoralpha.in/us/stocks/gass Sector Alpha also publishes a daily newsletter that explains one Indian stock at a time: https://newsletter.sectoralpha.in/?utm_source=sectoralpha&utm_medium=ai_text&utm_campaign=llms ## Key numbers - Business trend: Getting worse, from the last 12 quarters - Price: $8.58 (+25.3% in a year) - P/E: 5.4× (higher than 54% of the last 1 year) - Revenue (Jun 2026): $42.9 M (−9.2% on a year ago) - Profit (Jun 2026): $17.3 M (−15.4% on a year ago) - Operating margin: 31.5% (−10.5 points on a year ago) - ROE: 9%, FY25 - ROIC: 4.2%, against a 5.7% cost of capital: −1.5 points The main question: the share price moved +25.3% in a year while yearly earnings per share moved −13.8%. The difference came from the market paying a higher multiple. ## What is the StealthGas share price today? StealthGas Inc.'s share price was $8.58 at the close on 3 November 2026. That is 4.7% below its average price over the last 200 trading days. In the last 52 weeks it traded between $7 and $10, and at that close it sat 54% of the way up from that low. Over the past 13 weeks it has done better than the S&P 500, and it has stayed ahead for 1 week in a row. Over the last 1 year the share price moved +27% while the S&P 500 moved +21%, so it is ahead of the index over that whole period. 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 StealthGas pay? StealthGas Inc. pays no dividend. In the last 12 reported quarters it declared no dividend per share, so there is no payout history to chart and no yield to show. Companies like this usually keep their earnings in the business, so the cash-flow sections show where that cash goes. ## Which stock lists is StealthGas on? StealthGas 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 StealthGas profitable? StealthGas Inc. earned $17.3 M of net profit in the Jun 2026 quarter, −15.4% on the same quarter a year earlier. Full-year FY25 profit was $58.8 M. That is 40.3% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier earned $20.4 M. For the full year, FY25 profit was $58.8 M (−12.4% on the year before). Why profit moved: revenue changed −9.2% on a year earlier and the margin moved −10.5 percentage points. Sales did the work while the margin got thinner. On average over the last four quarters, profit changed +0.6% and revenue −1.6%. Profit and revenue are moving at about the same pace. ## How much revenue does StealthGas make, and is it growing? StealthGas Inc. reported $42.9 M of revenue in the Jun 2026 quarter, −9.2% on the same quarter a year earlier. Over 4 years it has grown 3.6% a year on average. The last full year, FY25, came in at $173 M. The last four reported quarters add to $170 M. FY25 revenue was $173 M, +3.5% on the year before. Recent pace: the last four quarters grew −1.6% on average, against 3.6% a year over the longer run, so this year is growing slower than its own long-run rate. Is growth speeding up? Revenue over the last 12 months grew −2.0%, against +5.6% a year over the last 8 quarters (rolling over); profit over the last 12 months grew −1.2%, against −7.6% a year (accelerating). ## How much of every $100 of sales does StealthGas keep? StealthGas Inc.'s operating margin was 31.5% in the Jun 2026 quarter, 10.5 percentage points lower than the same quarter a year ago. Across 5 years it has been between 9.3% and 35.8%. The latest quarter is within that range. Why the margin moved: operating margin changed −10.5 percentage points on the year while gross margin changed −10.3 points. So the drop came mostly from the gross margin, which means input costs and prices charged. ## Is StealthGas' profit turning into cash? Over the last 3 years, 150% of StealthGas Inc.'s reported profit came in as cash from its operations, so the profit is backed by cash. In FY25 it brought in $85.2 M of operating cash against $58.8 M of profit. After $412 K of spending on assets, $84.8 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 StealthGas' cash go? StealthGas 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 $107 M on assets over the last 3 years. Averaged over those years that is 20.5% 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: $107 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 StealthGas' P/E ratio, and how does it compare with its own history? StealthGas Inc.'s P/E is 5.4×, in the middle of its own history: higher than 54% of past readings. Its usual P/E (the middle reading) is 5.2×, over 1 year of weekly prices. 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 −13.8% while the price moved +25.3%. The price did better than earnings, which pushed the multiple up within its own range. In short: the multiple is about average against its own past, so the earnings trend underneath matters more than the multiple. ## Is the StealthGas business getting better or worse? StealthGas Inc.'s business is getting worse. Profit and EPS growth are shrinking: profit growth is −1.2% in the latest quarter, against +62.2% at its best in 12 quarters, with ROCE steady at 6.7%. This is based on 12 quarters of 4 measures. Why it matters: falling lines mean any ratio below that looks low should be read with that direction in mind. ## How much does StealthGas earn on its capital? StealthGas Inc. earned a ROE of 9% in FY25. That is up from a low of −7% in FY21. Its return on capital used (ROIC) is 1.5 percentage points below its cost of capital, so growth here does not yet pay for the capital it uses. It comes from a 34.0% net margin and 0.24× asset turnover (sales divided by assets). Why the return is what it is (FY25): a 34.0% net margin × 0.24× asset turnover × 1.03× leverage (assets divided by equity) ≈ 8.4% on equity. The margin does most of the work; borrowing plays a small part, so this return is earned, not borrowed. The key test, return on capital used minus the cost of capital: 4.2% − 5.7% = −1.5 percentage points. The 5.7% 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. ## Does StealthGas have too much debt? StealthGas Inc. has total debt of $39.0 K against shareholder equity of $727 M as of Jun 2026, so its debt is 0.00× its equity, which is very little. Year by year, that ratio went from 0.63 in FY21 to 0.00 in FY25. So the returns on this page come from the business, not from borrowed money. ## What is the StealthGas shareholding pattern? We have no ownership or short-position figures for StealthGas Inc., so this section says so rather than fill the gap. At normal trading volumes, closing those positions would take about 0.6 days. US companies do not publish a quarter-by-quarter list of owners, so this page uses short interest instead. ## How far is StealthGas from balance-sheet trouble? For StealthGas Inc., the Z-score is 7.54. 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 7.54 is well clear of the danger zone, so the balance sheet is not the risk here. ## How does StealthGas rank in its industry? 36.9 out of 100, rank 20 of 23 in Marine Shipping, with 85% of the evidence available. StealthGas Inc. scores 36.9 out of 100 against the 23 companies it is compared with in Marine Shipping, ranking 20. The valuation scores well, but earnings are not improving yet, so the business does not back up the low multiple so far. The four parts add up to the total exactly: 7 + 10 + 14.6 + 5.3 = 36.9. 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 StealthGas compared with? StealthGas ranks 20 of 23 Marine Shipping companies on the 4-Factor Sector Score, with 36.9 out of 100. 1.

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 Jun 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.

StealthGas Inc. reported revenue of $42.9 M and net profit of $17.3 M for the Jun 2026 quarter. Revenue fell 9.2% and profit fell 15.4% compared with a year earlier. Earnings per share were $0.46. The operating margin was 31.5%, 10.5 percentage points lower than a year earlier (as of 3 November 2026). ### What is StealthGas's market cap? StealthGas Inc.'s market capitalisation is $319 M at a stock price of $8.58. Market cap is the share price times the number of shares, so it changes whenever the price moves (as of 3 November 2026). ### How is StealthGas performing? StealthGas Inc.'s latest readings are below. In its latest quarter, revenue fell 9.2% and profit fell 15.4% compared with a year earlier. Over the past 13 weeks it has done better than the S&P 500, for 1 week running. This describes what the data did, not a rating (as of 3 November 2026). ### Will StealthGas's stock price go up? This page does not forecast StealthGas Inc.'s stock price. What it shows instead: the stock price is $8.58. Its P/E of 5.4× is higher than 54% of its own last 1 years. Nobody can reliably say which way a price will move, and this site does not try (as of 3 November 2026). ### Where is StealthGas in its business cycle? StealthGas Inc.'s FY25 operating margin was 31.8%, against a 5-year range of 9.3% to 35.8%: the middle of its own range, neither a peak nor a low. The latest quarter was 31.5%. Comparing margins with a company's own long history is a good way to see where it is in its cycle (as of 3 November 2026). ### What could break the StealthGas story? The main question: the share price moved +25.3% in a year while yearly earnings per share moved −13.8%. The difference came from the market paying a higher multiple. 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 StealthGas a stock worth studying right now? What the numbers show: StealthGas Inc.'s share price, valuation and earnings point in different directions. The next one or two quarters should make it clearer. The main open question: whether earnings grow into a price that has already moved. Every number on this page is worked out by code from the published figures, with no forecasts and no price opinions (as of 3 November 2026). This is research, not advice. We’re not SEBI-registered.
