Frequently Asked Questions

How does Star Group, L.P.’s P/E ratio compare with its history?

On this page, SGU's current P/E is 6.3, compared with a multi-year average around 13.1. A lower P/E versus its own history is a calculated gap versus that average—not a conclusion that the stock is cheap. Pair it with profitability and earnings quality in the table (for example ROE/ROIC) to see whether the multiple moved with earnings.

What is Star Group, L.P. market cap?

Market cap is the market value of a company's equity and is commonly calculated as share price multiplied by shares outstanding. The latest market cap shown in the table is $422.24M. Pair market cap with valuation multiples (P/E, P/B, P/S) so you can evaluate whether size also corresponds with "quality" and profitability. For a wider view across stocks, you can also use the stock screener.

How does Star Group, L.P.’s P/E compare with its industry?

There is no P/E Tickerplace rates as good. Compare the P/E on this page with Star Group, L.P.'s own historical range (in the table) and with peers via the Screener and Compare tools. A higher or lower multiple versus peers is a calculated gap, not a recommendation.

How does Star Group, L.P. compare to its competitors in key financial ratios?

The fastest way to compare Star Group, L.P. with competitors is to use the built-in "Peers Comparison" section on this page and the Compare tool. Focus on a small set of ratios that work together: P/E for valuation, ROE/ROIC for profitability and capital efficiency, current ratio and interest coverage for liquidity and solvency, and debt-to-equity for leverage risk. When you see Star Group, L.P. outperform peers on profitability while keeping valuation and leverage reasonable, it often signals stronger fundamentals.

What do Star Group, L.P.'s liquidity and leverage ratios show?

Liquidity and leverage figures on this page are published ratios, not a verdict that Star Group, L.P. is financially strong. Current ratio is about 0.87, which is below 1.0 and can suggest tighter short-term liquidity. Interest coverage is about 7.42, implying a stronger ability to cover interest expenses. Debt-to-equity is about 0.69, suggesting leverage is more moderate relative to a high-debt profile. Pair them with ROE/ROIC and cash-flow rows in the table. Tickerplace does not rate the company as a good or poor investment.

What do Star Group, L.P.'s financial ratios say about its future growth?

Ratios are a way to see what the business is likely to sustain. Look for upward trends in profitability metrics (ROE and ROIC), improving earnings/cash-flow backed measures, and stable or strengthening liquidity. If Star Group, L.P. is sustaining strong returns (for example ROE at 20.42% and ROIC at 10.94%) while debt levels and interest coverage remain manageable, growth expectations may be more credible. If valuation multiples expand while returns weaken, the market may be pricing optimistic growth ahead of results.
