The main question: the share price moved +21.3% in a year while yearly earnings per share moved −17.1%. The difference came from the market paying a higher multiple. ## What is the Douglas Dynamics share price today? Douglas Dynamics, Inc.'s share price was $36.66 at the close on 3 November 2026. That is 14.9% below its average price over the last 200 trading days. In the last 52 weeks it traded between $31 and $54, and at that close it sat 26% 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 18 weeks running. Over the last 1 year the share price moved +21% while the S&P 500 moved +21%, so it is ahead of the index over that whole period. It was last ahead over 13 weeks in the week of 2 July 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 Douglas Dynamics pay? Douglas Dynamics, Inc. paid $1.18 per share over the last four reported quarters. The most recent declaration was $0.29 for Jun 2026. At today's price of $36.66 that is a yield of 3.22%, based on dividends already paid, not a forecast. ## Which stock lists is Douglas Dynamics on? Douglas Dynamics 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 Douglas Dynamics profitable? Douglas Dynamics, Inc. earned $24.9 M of net profit in the Jun 2026 quarter, −1.9% on the same quarter a year earlier. Full-year FY25 profit was $45.8 M. Over 4 years profit has grown 11.0% a year on average. That is 11.6% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier earned $25.4 M. 1 of the last 12 reported quarters were loss-making. For the full year, FY25 profit was $45.8 M (−16.7% on the year before). Why profit moved: revenue changed +10.5% on a year earlier and the margin moved −2.5 percentage points. Sales did the work while the margin got thinner. On average over the last four quarters, profit changed +1,087.5% and revenue +21.1%. 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 Douglas Dynamics make, and is it growing? Douglas Dynamics, Inc. reported $215 M of revenue in the Jun 2026 quarter, +10.5% 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 4.9% a year on average. The last full year, FY25, came in at $656 M. The last four reported quarters add to $699 M. FY25 revenue was $656 M, +15.4% on the year before. Recent pace: the last four quarters grew +21.1% on average, against 4.9% 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 +20.1%, against +10.4% a year over the last 8 quarters (accelerating); profit over the last 12 months grew −20.6%, against +35.7% a year (rolling over). ## How much of every $100 of sales does Douglas Dynamics keep? Douglas Dynamics, Inc.'s operating margin was 16.5% in the Jun 2026 quarter, 2.5 percentage points lower 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 7.9% and 11.2%. The latest quarter is above every full year in that period. Across 5 years it has been between 7.9% and 11.2%, and FY25's 11.2% is the highest of them. Why the margin moved: operating margin changed −2.5 percentage points on the year while gross margin changed +0.1 points. So the drop came mostly from costs below the gross margin, such as staff and overheads, measured against sales. When margins are at a record, every ratio built on profit looks better than usual, so watch whether they hold. ## Is Douglas Dynamics' profit turning into cash? Over the last 3 years, 103% of Douglas Dynamics, Inc.'s reported profit came in as cash from its operations, so the profit is backed by cash. In FY25 it brought in $74.7 M of operating cash against $45.8 M of profit. After $11.1 M of spending on assets, $63.6 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 Douglas Dynamics' cash go? Douglas Dynamics, 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 $29.5 M on assets over the last 3 years. Averaged over those years that is 1.5% 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: $29.5 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 Douglas Dynamics' P/E ratio, and how does it compare with its own history? Douglas Dynamics, Inc.'s P/E is 13.2×, 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 −17.1% while the price moved +21.3%. 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 Douglas Dynamics business getting better or worse? Douglas Dynamics, Inc.'s business is getting worse. Profit and EPS growth are shrinking: profit growth is −20.6% in the latest quarter, against +138.7% at its best in 12 quarters, with ROCE steady at 14.5%. 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 Douglas Dynamics earn on its capital? Douglas Dynamics, Inc. earned a ROE of 16% in FY25. That is up from a low of 10% in FY23. Its return on capital used (ROIC) is 3.7 percentage points above its cost of capital, so growth here adds value, not just size. It comes from a 7.0% net margin and 1.05× asset turnover (sales divided by assets). Why the return is what it is (FY25): a 7.0% net margin × 1.05× asset turnover × 2.23× leverage (assets divided by equity) ≈ 16.4% 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: 11.9% − 8.2% = +3.7 percentage points. The 8.2% 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. ## Does Douglas Dynamics have too much debt? Douglas Dynamics, Inc. has total debt of $291 M against shareholder equity of $300 M as of Jun 2026, so its debt is 0.97× its equity. Year by year, that ratio went from 1.15 in FY21 to 0.78 in FY25. Keep that borrowing in mind when reading the returns on this page. ## What is the Douglas Dynamics shareholding pattern? 2.3% of Douglas Dynamics, 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 2.9 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 Douglas Dynamics from balance-sheet trouble? For Douglas Dynamics, Inc., the Z-score is 3.08. 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 3.08 is well clear of the danger zone, so the balance sheet is not the risk here. ## How does Douglas Dynamics rank in its industry?
