Add to Favorite
Added to Favorite


Wall Street analysts project Cathay’s earnings per share (EPS) to be $1.10 with expected revenue of approximately $184.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2024.
The company’s price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio is approximately 12.03, indicating market valuation, alongside a price-to-sales ratio of about 2.80.
Cathay’s low debt-to-equity ratio of about 0.08 suggests financial stability and a conservative approach to leveraging.

Cathay General Bancorp (NASDAQ:CATY), a financial institution that provides a range of banking services, operates primarily in the United States, focusing on commercial banking, personal banking, and wealth management. As it prepares to release its quarterly earnings, analysts and investors are keenly observing its financial performance and operational efficiency.
Wall Street analysts have projected Cathay’s earnings per share (EPS) to be $1.10, with expected revenue of approximately $184.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2024. However, as highlighted by Zacks Investment Research, there is an anticipation of a decline in earnings. This suggests that Cathay may not have the optimal combination of factors necessary for an earnings beat.
Beyond traditional metrics like revenue and profit, analysts are examining Cathay’s financial health through various ratios. The company’s price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio is approximately 12.03, which provides insight into how the market values its earnings. A price-to-sales ratio of about 2.80 and an enterprise value to sales ratio of roughly 2.84 further illustrate its market valuation.
Cathay’s enterprise value to operating cash flow ratio stands at around 11.32, indicating how efficiently the company generates cash from its operations. The earnings yield, approximately 8.31%, reflects the return on investment for shareholders. Additionally, Cathay’s low debt-to-equity ratio of about 0.08 highlights its conservative approach to leveraging, suggesting financial stability.
As the earnings announcement approaches, investors and stakeholders are advised to consider these key performance metrics. These figures provide a comprehensive view of Cathay’s financial health and operational efficiency, beyond the traditional revenue and profit estimates.
