The main question: yearly earnings per share moved +93.1% while the share price moved +36.4%. ## What is the Park Aerospace share price today?

In the last 52 weeks it traded between $19 and $38, and at that close it sat 37% of the way up from that low.

Over the last 10 years the share price moved +73% 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 14 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 Park Aerospace pay? Park Aerospace Corp. paid $0.50 per share over the last four reported quarters. The most recent declaration was $0.13 for Aug 2026. At today's price of $26.14 that is a yield of 1.91%, based on dividends already paid, not a forecast. ## Which stock lists is Park Aerospace on? Park Aerospace 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 Park Aerospace profitable? Park Aerospace Corp. earned $4.5 M of net profit in the Aug 2026 quarter, +88.6% on the same quarter a year earlier. That is the 6th quarter in a row of profit growth. Full-year FY26 profit was $11.3 M. Over 4 years profit has grown 7.4% a year on average. That is 21.8% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier earned $2.4 M. For the full year, FY26 profit was $11.3 M (+91.6% on the year before). Why profit moved: revenue changed +26.9% on a year earlier and the margin moved +1.0 percentage points. Sales did the work, and the margin was about flat. On average over the last four quarters, profit changed +113.4% and revenue +27.2%. 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 Park Aerospace make, and is it growing? Park Aerospace Corp. reported $20.8 M of revenue in the Aug 2026 quarter, +26.9% on the same quarter a year earlier. That is the 4th quarter in a row with growth on the year before. Over 4 years it has grown 8.2% a year on average. The last full year, FY26, came in at $73.3 M. The last four reported quarters add to $80.6 M. FY26 revenue was $73.3 M, +18.2% on the year before. Recent pace: the last four quarters grew +27.2% on average, against 8.2% 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 +27.7%, against +17.2% a year over the last 8 quarters (accelerating); profit over the last 12 months grew +103.3%, against +46.4% a year (accelerating). ## How much of every $100 of sales does Park Aerospace keep? Park Aerospace Corp.'s operating margin was 18.4% in the Aug 2026 quarter, 1.0 percentage points higher than the same quarter a year ago. Across 5 years it has been between 15.0% and 21.8%. The latest quarter is within that range. Why the margin moved: operating margin changed +1.0 percentage points on the year while gross margin changed −1.2 points. So the gain came mostly from the gross margin, which means input costs and prices charged. ## Is Park Aerospace's profit turning into cash? Over the last 3 years, 84% of Park Aerospace Corp.'s reported profit came in as cash from its operations, so the profit is backed by cash. In FY26 it brought in $11.5 M of operating cash against $11.3 M of profit. After $2.0 M of spending on assets, $9.5 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 Park Aerospace's cash go? Park Aerospace 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 $3.6 M on assets over the last 3 years. Averaged over those years that is 1.6% of FY26 revenue a year. Nothing is estimated in place of the missing day counts, so no cash-cycle chart is drawn. Spending on assets: $3.6 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 Park Aerospace's P/E ratio, and how does it compare with its own history? Park Aerospace Corp.'s P/E is 36.8×, in the middle of its own history: higher than 42% of past readings. Its usual P/E (the middle reading) is 39.8×, over 4.7 years 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 +93.1% while the price moved +36.4%. Earnings did better than the price, which pulled the multiple down within its own range. Where the price move came from: over 3 years the price moved +20.8% a year; about +11.6% a year came from earnings growth and about +9.2 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: the multiple is about average against its own past, so the earnings trend underneath matters more than the multiple. ## Is the Park Aerospace business getting better or worse? Park Aerospace Corp.'s business is getting better. Profit growth hit its low 8 quarters ago at −34.2% and has recovered to +103.3%, with ROCE steady at 11.5%. This is based on 12 quarters of 4 measures. Why it matters: a lasting rise from a low is what this page is built to show. ## How much does Park Aerospace earn on its capital? Park Aerospace Corp. earned a ROE of 9% in FY26. That is up from a low of 6% in FY25. Its return on capital used (ROIC) is 20.6 percentage points above its cost of capital, so growth here adds value, not just size. It comes from a 15.4% net margin and 0.52× asset turnover (sales divided by assets). Why the return is what it is (FY26): a 15.4% net margin × 0.52× asset turnover × 1.09× leverage (assets divided by equity) ≈ 8.7% 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: 27.3% − 6.7% = +20.6 percentage points. The 6.7% 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. The 27.3% ROIC above is the latest reading, as reported. The yearly chart below shows FY26 at 25.4%, and the quarterly chart works out each 12-month window from the quarterly figures, so the readings differ by date, not by method. ## Does Park Aerospace have too much debt? Park Aerospace Corp. has total debt of $296 K against shareholder equity of $163 M as of Aug 2026, so its debt is 0.00× its equity, which is very little. Year by year, that ratio went from 0.00 in FY22 to 0.00 in FY26. So the returns on this page come from the business, not from borrowed money. ## What is the Park Aerospace shareholding pattern? 6.1% of Park Aerospace Corp.'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 3.9 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 Park Aerospace from balance-sheet trouble? For Park Aerospace Corp., the Z-score is 28.15. 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 28.15 is well clear of the danger zone, so the balance sheet is not the risk here. ## How does Park Aerospace rank in its industry?
