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 Zurn Elkay Water Solutions pay? Zurn Elkay Water Solutions Corporation paid $0.42 per share over the last four reported quarters. The most recent declaration was $0.11 for Jun 2026. At today's price of $44.12 that is a yield of 0.95%, based on dividends already paid, not a forecast. ## Which stock lists is Zurn Elkay Water Solutions on? Zurn Elkay Water Solutions 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 Zurn Elkay Water Solutions profitable? Zurn Elkay Water Solutions Corporation earned $113 M of net profit in the Jun 2026 quarter, +124.4% on the same quarter a year earlier. That is the 10th quarter in a row of profit growth. Full-year FY25 profit was $198 M. Over 4 years profit has grown 13.1% a year on average. That is 23.1% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier earned $50.5 M. For the full year, FY25 profit was $198 M (+23.6% on the year before). Why profit moved: revenue changed +10.5% on a year earlier and the margin moved +13.7 percentage points. Most of the change came from keeping more of each sale. On average over the last four quarters, profit changed +54.3% and revenue +10.7%. 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 Zurn Elkay Water Solutions make, and is it growing? Zurn Elkay Water Solutions Corporation reported $491 M of revenue in the Jun 2026 quarter, +10.5% on the same quarter a year earlier. That is the 11th quarter in a row with growth on the year before. Over 4 years it has grown 16.8% a year on average. The last full year, FY25, came in at $1.7 B. The last four reported quarters add to $1.8 B. FY25 revenue was $1.7 B, +8.3% on the year before. Recent pace: the last four quarters grew +10.7% on average, against 16.8% 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 +10.7%, against +7.7% a year over the last 8 quarters (stabilising); profit over the last 12 months grew +58.7%, against +42.7% a year (accelerating). ## How much of every $100 of sales does Zurn Elkay Water Solutions keep? Zurn Elkay Water Solutions Corporation's operating margin was 31.4% in the Jun 2026 quarter, 13.7 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 12.4% and 16.9%. The latest quarter is above every full year in that period. Across 5 years it has been between 12.4% and 16.9%, and FY25's 16.9% is the highest of them. Why the margin moved: operating margin changed +13.7 percentage points on the year while gross margin changed +13.2 points. So the gain came mostly from the gross margin, which means input costs and prices charged. As noted under valuation: when margins are at a record, every ratio built on profit looks better than usual, so a low multiple can mislead. ## Is Zurn Elkay Water Solutions' profit turning into cash? Over the last 3 years, 190% of Zurn Elkay Water Solutions Corporation's reported profit came in as cash from its operations, so the profit is backed by cash. In FY25 it brought in $347 M of operating cash against $198 M of profit. After $29.9 M of spending on assets, $317 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 Zurn Elkay Water Solutions' cash go? Zurn Elkay Water Solutions Corporation 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 $73.0 M on assets over the last 3 years. Averaged over those years that is 1.4% 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: $73.0 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 Zurn Elkay Water Solutions' P/E ratio, and how does it compare with its own history? Zurn Elkay Water Solutions Corporation's P/E is 25.7×, about the lowest it has ever been. Its usual P/E (the middle reading) is 44.6×, over 4.6 years of weekly prices. This compares the share price with the company’s own past. It does not say what the business is worth. Keep one thing in mind: margins are the best this company has ever reported. A multiple that looks low against its own past can mislead when profit is at a record. If margins fall back, today's multiple is higher than it looks. Why the multiple is where it is: over the past year earnings per share moved +25.6% while the price moved −6.3%. 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 +15.5% a year; about +36.5% a year came from earnings growth and about −21.0 percentage points from the multiple (the market paying less). 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 low against its own past, so the earnings trend underneath matters more than the multiple. ## Is the Zurn Elkay Water Solutions business getting better or worse? Zurn Elkay Water Solutions Corporation's business is growing steadily. Revenue, profit and EPS growth have stayed positive throughout, and ROCE is steady at 15.7%. This is based on 12 quarters of 4 measures. Why it matters: steady growth with healthy returns is how a business compounds over time. ## How much does Zurn Elkay Water Solutions earn on its capital? Zurn Elkay Water Solutions Corporation earned a ROE of 12% in FY25. That is up from a low of 4% in FY22. Its return on capital used (ROIC) is 8.0 percentage points above its cost of capital, so growth here adds value, not just size. It comes from a 11.7% net margin and 0.63× asset turnover (sales divided by assets). Why the return is what it is (FY25): a 11.7% net margin × 0.63× asset turnover × 1.67× leverage (assets divided by equity) ≈ 12.3% 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: 16.4% − 8.4% = +8.0 percentage points. The 8.4% 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 16.4% ROIC above is the latest reading, as reported. The yearly chart below shows FY25 at 11.3%, and the quarterly chart works out each 12-month window from the quarterly figures, so the readings differ by date, not by method. ## Does Zurn Elkay Water Solutions have too much debt? Zurn Elkay Water Solutions Corporation has total debt of $551 M against shareholder equity of $1.7 B as of Jun 2026, so its debt is 0.33× its equity. Year by year, that ratio went from 4.39 in FY21 to 0.35 in FY25. Keep that borrowing in mind when reading the returns on this page. ## What is the Zurn Elkay Water Solutions shareholding pattern? 3.0% of Zurn Elkay Water Solutions Corporation'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 4.7 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 Zurn Elkay Water Solutions from balance-sheet trouble? For Zurn Elkay Water Solutions Corporation, the Z-score is 5.19. 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 5.19 is well clear of the danger zone, so the balance sheet is not the risk here. ## How does Zurn Elkay Water Solutions rank in its industry? 70.2 out of 100, rank 1 of 7 in Pollution & Treatment Controls, with 81% of the evidence available. Zurn Elkay Water Solutions Corporation scores 70.2 out of 100 against the 7 companies it is compared with in Pollution & Treatment Controls, ranking 1.

Missing figures are not scored as bad. 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 Sep 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.
