Return on equity stands at 22.9%, which is strong for the sector. ROE measures how effectively a company uses shareholder capital to generate profits. An ROA of 5.9% suggests reasonable efficiency in deploying the company's asset base. Revenue has been relatively flat, moving from $1.37B (2022) to $1.45B (2025).
