Frequently asked questions

Is ESE growing its revenue and profit?

Over the past 5 years, Esco Technologies Inc's revenue has grown 8.4% per year, and net income grown 24.7% per year. These are computed facts, not advice.

How much debt does ESE have?

As of FY2025, Esco Technologies Inc reported $186M of total debt against $101M of cash; operating income covered interest expense 9.7×.

What is ESE's profit margin?

In FY2025, gross margin was 42.1%, operating margin 15.6%, and net margin 27.3%.

What is ESE's P/E ratio?

Esco Technologies Inc's P/E (TTM) is 19.84 as of the 2026-11-02 close — market cap ÷ net income over the trailing twelve months where four consecutive quarters are reported, otherwise the latest fiscal year, the same figure as on the ESE stock page. The valuation chart above sets each month-end's price against the latest annual net income instead, so its latest point (about 20.9× as of Nov '26) can differ. These are computed facts, not advice.

Where does this data come from?

All figures are extracted from the company’s SEC EDGAR/XBRL filings — 10-K annual reports and 10-Q quarterly reports (use the Annual / Quarterly toggle). Quarterly figures are derived from the as-filed statements (year-to-date amounts are differenced into discrete quarters). Growth rates and ratios are computed by tradmap; nothing here is investment advice.
