Is NDSN overbought or oversold?
At the October 15, 2026 close, NDSN's RSI(14) was 58.8, in neutral territory (between 30 and 70). The MACD histogram was negative, so short-term momentum leaned bearish at that close. These readings are historical, refresh daily after market close, and are not investment advice.
On the balance sheet, NDSN has $113.9M in cash with $1.82B in obligations. The ability to service this debt comfortably depends on continued operational cash generation. The company generates $613.8M in free cash flow annually, which funds everything from R&D to shareholder returns without needing external financing. ROE of 17.8% points to strong capital efficiency, indicating how much profit the company produces per dollar of shareholder equity. An ROA of 8.5% suggests reasonable efficiency in deploying the company's asset base. Revenue has been relatively flat, moving from $2.59B (2022) to $2.79B (2025).
