What does London Stock Exchange Group's quality score measure?+

Intrinsiqq's quality score weighs revenue and free-cash-flow growth, operating margins, return on invested capital, change in share count, and balance-sheet strength, each computed from LSEG.XLON's company filings rather than opinion or sentiment. A higher score means a more durable, capital-efficient business; it is not a buy or sell signal. Open each metric on this page to see exactly where London Stock Exchange Group scores well and where it falls behind.

What is London Stock Exchange Group's return on invested capital (ROIC)?+

London Stock Exchange Group earns about 4.8% on its invested capital, which is weak. ROIC measures how much profit a company generates per dollar put to work; sustained ROIC above its cost of capital is one of the clearest signs of a real competitive moat. Compare it to LSEG.XLON's margins and growth on this scorecard to judge durability.

How profitable is London Stock Exchange Group?+

London Stock Exchange Group runs an operating margin of about 23.2% and a net margin of about 16.1%. Revenue has grown at roughly 9.4% a year recently.

This is analysis from company filings, not investment advice.
