FCF Yield

The current FCF Yield of 10.9% means that for every $100 of BMY’s market value, the company generates $10.90 in free cash flow—cash left after operating and capital expenses.

This ratio is well above the sector median of 4.2%, placing BMY in the 89th percentile among its peers, indicating it offers a higher cash return relative to its stock price. The year-over-year change is not available (N/A), while the quarter-over-quarter change shows a decline of -3.5% from the prior quarter’s 11.3% to the current 10.9%. Although the FCF Yield remains high, the downward trend over the most recent two quarters suggests the cash generation advantage is narrowing. For an investor, the combination of an above-median yield with a declining trend implies a reduced margin of safety compared to recent history, adding risk that the yield could continue to fall. This metric partially supports the CAUTIOUS verdict: the high yield is attractive, but the negative quarter-over-quarter movement aligns with the cautious stance.
