Net margin is net income as a share of revenue. Free cash flow is cash from operations minus capital spending. Return on capital is after-tax operating income as a share of the money invested in the business: debt plus equity, minus cash. Market cap is the last closing share price times the latest diluted share count, so it is approximate. P/E is the last close divided by diluted earnings per share over the last four quarters, or the latest fiscal year where the quarters aren't available; there is none when the company made a loss.

Charts show fiscal years, from the 10-K filings.

What Genworth Financial does

Genworth Financial is an insurance holding company. Its main business is private mortgage insurance in the United States, which protects lenders if a home buyer fails to repay a loan. It runs this through its subsidiary Enact Holdings, which is listed separately on Nasdaq under the ticker ACT and is controlled by Genworth.

Genworth reports two segments: Enact, and a Closed Block of long-term care, life insurance and annuity policies sold through its older insurance companies. Those companies no longer sell these products, but they keep servicing the policies already in force. A third area, Corporate and Other, includes new businesses under the CareScout name: fee-based aging-care services and, since October 2025, a new long-term care insurance product.

In late 2025 Genworth changed its reporting to these two segments to match how it manages the business, including its aim to keep the legacy insurance companies self-sustaining and managed on their own.

Its biggest risks, as it describes them

  • Having to add to insurance reserves if claims turn out worse than its assumptions, especially for long-term care.
  • New lines of business such as CareScout not succeeding or bringing new risks.
  • Its dependence on Enact Holdings to pay it dividends and other payments.
  • Limited sources of capital, and ratings downgrades that could cost it business.
  • Models and valuation methods that turn out to be inaccurate.

Current ratio—————
Quick ratio—————
US$ millions unless stated, at each fiscal year end. Net debt to EBITDA is debt minus cash, divided by operating income before depreciation and amortization: roughly how many years of those earnings the net debt equals. Debt to equity is debt as a multiple of shareholders' equity. Interest coverage is operating income divided by interest expense. The current ratio is current assets over current liabilities; the quick ratio leaves out inventory.

Cash flow

Free cash flow is cash from operations minus capital expenditure. The SEC's structured data for Genworth Financial's filings doesn't give both for any year, so free cash flow is left out.

Stock-based compensation and buybacks
US$ billions, fiscal years. Shares paid to employees (stock-based compensation, a cost that uses no cash) against cash spent buying shares back. Buybacks that only match it leave the share count roughly where it was.

Open-market purchases and sales by officers, directors and 10% owners, from their Form 4 filings with the SEC: one row per person, day and filing, at the day's average price. Grants, option exercises and shares withheld for tax aren't counted. Insiders buy and sell for many reasons, such as taxes, spreading their savings or a plan set up months earlier, so a trade on its own says little about where a company is heading.

Indicators

Four widely used measures, worked out from the company's filings. The cutoffs are the ones their authors or users go by, not a verdict of ours.

IndicatorFY23FY24FY25
Piotroski F-score———
Rule of 40———
Altman Z''———
Accruals ratio−0.6%0.2%−0.1%
Piotroski F-score: how many of nine simple tests of profitability, funding and efficiency the company passed in the year (Piotroski, 2000); 8 or 9 is strong, 0 to 2 weak. Rule of 40: revenue growth plus free cash flow margin; software investors treat 40% or more as the bar. Altman Z'': working capital, retained earnings, operating income and equity weighed against assets and liabilities (Altman, 1995); Altman puts above 2.6 in the safe zone and below 1.1 in the distress zone. Accruals ratio: net income minus cash from operations, over average total assets; lower means profit is backed by cash.
