Frequently asked questions
What is HSBC Holdings PLC ADR's revenue?
HSBC Holdings PLC ADR's trailing twelve-month revenue is $63.77B, and consensus projects about $83.64B 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 HSBC?
In its most recent fiscal year, HSBC ran a gross margin of 54.63%, an operating margin of 20.27%, and a net margin of 15.11%. 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 HSBC generate?
HSBC produced $25.11B 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 HSBC's balance sheet healthy?
HSBC holds $286.92B in cash and equivalents against — in long-term debt, on $177.51B of shareholder equity. That debt is best read against the cash flow the business throws off each year.
