What is East West Bancorp Inc's revenue?

East West Bancorp Inc's trailing twelve-month revenue is $2.79B, and consensus projects about $4.05B by 2030. Revenue is the top line the whole model builds on, and at this scale the question shifts from how fast it grows to whether margins hold as it compounds.

How profitable is EWBC?

In its most recent fiscal year, EWBC ran a gross margin of 60.10%, an operating margin of 37.44%, and a net margin of 28.27%. Margins this high mean most of each extra dollar of revenue drops through to profit, which is the signature of real pricing power.

How much free cash flow does EWBC generate?

EWBC produced $1.50B in free cash flow in its most recent fiscal year. Free cash flow is what is left after running and reinvesting in the business, and it is the cash that actually funds buybacks, dividends, and a stronger balance sheet.

Is EWBC's balance sheet healthy?

EWBC holds $656.13M in cash and equivalents against $3.04B in long-term debt, on $8.90B of shareholder equity. That debt is best read against the cash flow the business throws off each year.
