Description: DOLE Dole August 13, 2025
Dole PLC is an Irish-listed company operating in the Packaged Foods & Meats sub-industry, with its common stock traded on the NYSE under the ticker symbol DOLE.
The companys financial performance can be evaluated through its income tax expense on a yearly basis, which is a crucial aspect of its overall profitability. A key driver of income tax expense is the companys earnings before taxes, as well as the applicable tax rates in the jurisdictions where it operates. Effective tax rate management is essential to minimize tax liabilities and maximize net income.
To assess Dole PLCs financial health and performance, key metrics such as Return on Equity (RoE) of 6.99% and a forward Price-to-Earnings (P/E) ratio of 10.79 can be considered. These indicators suggest that the company operates in a relatively low-margin environment, typical of the packaged foods industry, where competition is high and pricing power is limited.
Market capitalization of $1.39 billion USD positions Dole PLC as a mid-cap company, potentially offering a balance between growth opportunities and stability. The companys beta of 0.696 indicates that its stock price tends to be less volatile than the overall market, which may appeal to risk-averse investors.
Key economic drivers for Dole PLC include global demand for packaged food products, fluctuations in raw material prices (such as fruits and vegetables), and changes in consumer preferences towards healthier and more sustainable options. The companys ability to adapt to these trends, manage its supply chain efficiently, and maintain a competitive edge in the market will be crucial to its future performance.
To further analyze Dole PLCs potential, additional KPIs such as revenue growth rate, gross margin, operating cash flow margin, and debt-to-equity ratio could be examined. These metrics would provide a more comprehensive understanding of the companys operational efficiency, financial leverage, and ability to generate cash flows.
