SunOpta Inc. (STKL) 10Y Growth Potential Analysis (2026)

Invetso Score: 5.6/10 — Balanced · Last Updated: 2026-08-01

Overall Score

Growth

Revenue growth remains the key long-term driver, but current margins are still modest with net profit margin at 1.9% and operating margin at 5.4%.

Asset efficiency is acceptable, with asset turnover at 1.18x and fixed asset turnover at 1.84x, supporting gradual scale-up potential.

Profitability

Profitability is positive but thin, with ROE at 9.3%, ROIC at 7.5%, and ROA at 2.3%.

Gross margin of 13.3% and EBITDA margin of 9.8% leave limited room for error if input costs rise.

Financial Health

Liquidity is adequate but not strong, with a current ratio of 1.18x and quick ratio of 0.61x.

Leverage remains elevated, with net debt to EBITDA at 4.64x and debt to equity at 2.00x, which constrains flexibility.

Valuation

Valuation looks reasonable on sales at 0.94x EV/sales, but earnings-based multiples remain demanding given the low margin profile.

Free cash flow yield of 2.5% and EV/FCF of 60.5x suggest the market is still pricing in meaningful future improvement.
