Frequently asked questions
What is Mercury General Corporation's revenue?
Mercury General Corporation's trailing twelve-month revenue is $6.14B. 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 MCY?
In its most recent fiscal year, MCY ran a gross margin of 33.87%, an operating margin of 11.07%, and a net margin of 9.03%. 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 MCY generate?
MCY produced $1.03B 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 MCY's balance sheet healthy?
MCY holds $1.32B in cash and equivalents against $574.53M in long-term debt, on $2.42B of shareholder equity. Cash on hand exceeds long-term debt, so the balance sheet adds little financial risk to the thesis.
