# Perfect share price (Perfect Corp., PERF) > Perfect Corp. is reporting record margins. PERF · Technology · Software - Application · data as of 22 October 2026. Page: https://www.sectoralpha.in/us/stocks/perf 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: Turning around, from fewer quarters than usual - Price: $1.99 (+1.5% in a year) - P/E: 35.1× (higher than 65% of the last 1 year) - Revenue (Jun 2026): $16.3 M (+0.0% on a year ago) - Profit (Jun 2026): $1.3 M (+518.4% on a year ago) - Operating margin: −0.7% (+8.3 points on a year ago) - ROE: 3%, FY25 - ROIC: 1.3%, against a 5.9% cost of capital: −4.6 points Biggest thing to watch: margins are the best this company has ever reported. Every ratio looks better at a record, so the story depends on margins staying high. ## What is the Perfect share price? Perfect Corp.'s share price was $1.99 at the close on 22 October 2026. That is 15.0% above its average price over the last 200 trading days. In the last 52 weeks it traded between $1 and $2, and at that close it was at the high of that range. 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 −11% while the S&P 500 moved +22%, so it is behind 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 Perfect pay? Perfect Corp. 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 Perfect on? Perfect is on one of our US lists: US tech stocks. [US tech stocks](https://www.sectoralpha.in/us-tech-stocks) ## Is Perfect profitable? Perfect Corp. earned $1.3 M of net profit in the Jun 2026 quarter, +518.4% on the same quarter a year earlier. That is the 2nd quarter in a row of profit growth. Full-year FY25 profit was $4.6 M. That is 7.8% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier earned $207 K. For the full year, FY25 profit was $4.6 M (−7.5% on the year before). Why profit moved: revenue changed +0.0% on a year earlier and the margin moved +8.3 percentage points. Most of the change came from keeping more of each sale. On average over the last four quarters, profit changed +102.2% and revenue +10.5%. 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 Perfect make, and is it growing? Perfect Corp. reported $16.3 M of revenue in the Jun 2026 quarter, +0.0% on the same quarter a year earlier. Over 4 years it has grown 14.1% a year on average. The last full year, FY25, came in at $69.2 M. The last four reported quarters add to $71.1 M. FY25 revenue was $69.2 M, +14.9% on the year before. Recent pace: the last four quarters grew +10.5% on average, against 14.1% 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 +10.4%, against +11.8% a year over the last 8 quarters (stabilising); profit over the last 12 months grew −5.7%, against −4.4% a year (stabilising). ## How much of every $100 of sales does Perfect keep? Perfect Corp.'s operating margin was −0.7% in the Jun 2026 quarter, 8.3 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 −150.3% and 0.3%. The latest quarter is within that range. Across 5 years it has been between −150.3% and 0.3%, and FY25's 0.3% is the highest of them. Why the margin moved: operating margin changed +8.3 percentage points on the year while gross margin changed +5.6 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 Perfect's profit turning into cash? Over the last 3 years, 264% of Perfect Corp.'s reported profit came in as cash from its operations, so the profit is backed by cash. In FY25 it brought in $13.3 M of operating cash against $4.6 M of profit. After $425 K of spending on assets, $12.9 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 Perfect's cash go? Perfect Corp. 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 $1.1 M on assets over the last 3 years. Averaged over those years that is 0.5% 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: $1.1 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 Perfect's P/E ratio, and how does it compare with its own history? Perfect Corp.'s P/E is 35.1×, in the middle of its own history: higher than 65% of past readings. Its usual P/E (the middle reading) is 33.9×, 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 −7.5% while the price moved +1.5%. The price did better than earnings, which pushed the multiple up within its own range. In short: the multiple is high against its own past, so the earnings trend underneath matters more than the multiple. ## Is the Perfect business getting better or worse? Perfect Corp.'s business is turning around. Profit growth has swung from −72.9% at its low to +518.4%, improving for 3 quarters in a row (from single-quarter figures), with ROCE rising at 2.1%. This is based on 12 quarters of 3 measures, with some gaps. Why it matters: a turn in growth is often where a bigger change starts. The lines say a turn is forming, so the question is whether the next quarters confirm it. One or more growth lines have an extreme jump caused by comparing with a near-zero or loss-making quarter. Those jumps are capped before reading and drawn at the edge of the chart, so one odd quarter does not decide the result. This reading has some gaps: at least one line is short, or the return line is not the quarterly series, so treat it with a little more caution. ## How much does Perfect earn on its capital? Perfect Corp. earned a ROE of 3% in FY25. That is up from a low of −89% in FY22. Its return on capital used (ROIC) is 4.6 percentage points below its cost of capital, so growth here does not yet pay for the capital it uses. It comes from a 6.7% net margin and 0.36× asset turnover (sales divided by assets). Why the return is what it is (FY25): a 6.7% net margin × 0.36× asset turnover × 1.25× leverage (assets divided by equity) ≈ 3.0% 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: 1.3% − 5.9% = −4.6 percentage points. The 5.9% 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 1.3% ROIC above is the latest reading, as reported. The yearly chart below shows FY22 at −241.8%, and the quarterly chart works out each 12-month window from the quarterly figures, so the readings differ by date, not by method. ## Does Perfect have too much debt? Perfect Corp. has total debt of $644 K against shareholder equity of $157 M as of Jun 2026, so its debt is 0.00× its equity, which is very little. Year by year, that ratio went from 0.00 in FY21 to 0.00 in FY25. So the returns on this page come from the business, not from borrowed money. ## What is the Perfect shareholding pattern? 0.6% of Perfect Corp.'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 1.2 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 Perfect from balance-sheet trouble? For Perfect Corp., the Z-score is 1.53. A Z-score above about 3 is safe and below about 1.8 signals danger, so this is in the danger zone. It estimates how far the balance sheet is from trouble; it is not a forecast of failure. Why it matters: a Z-score of 1.53 is inside the danger zone, so the balance sheet is a real risk. ## How does Perfect rank in its industry?
