Description: SPGI S&P Global December 01, 2025

S&P Global Inc. (NYSE: SPGI) delivers credit ratings, benchmarks, analytics, and workflow solutions across capital, commodity, and automotive markets through five operating segments: Market Intelligence, Ratings, Energy, Mobility, and Dow Jones Indices. The firm’s core revenue stream comes from data-driven products-particularly its Market Intelligence platform, which bundles multi-asset-class data, third-party research, and enterprise workflow tools for finance and corporate users.

Key performance indicators from the most recent fiscal year (FY 2023) show total revenue of approximately **$13.1 billion**, an operating margin of **~35 %**, and earnings per share of **$71.5**. The Market Intelligence segment contributed roughly **58 %** of revenue, reflecting the broader industry trend of escalating demand for real-time data and analytics amid tighter capital markets and higher regulatory scrutiny.

Sector-level drivers that materially affect S&P Global’s outlook include: (1) the **global interest-rate environment**, which influences the volume and pricing of credit-rating services; (2) **commodity-price volatility**, which underpins the Energy segment’s benchmark pricing business; and (3) the continued **shift toward passive investing**, bolstering demand for index products from the Dow Jones Indices arm. A potential risk is a slowdown in corporate-earnings reporting, which could dampen the appetite for the firm’s data-subscription services.

For analysts seeking a deeper, data-centric view of S&P Global’s valuation dynamics, a quick look at the **ValueRay** platform can surface comparable peer multiples and scenario-based sensitivity analyses-worth exploring before forming a trade thesis.
