O-I Glass
O-I Glass' revenue fell 1.6% to $6.4 billion in fiscal 2025. Its net margin was −2.0%, down from −1.6% a year earlier. Free cash flow was $168 million. It paid out $40 million in dividends and buybacks, 24% of free cash flow. The diluted share count fell 0.7%.
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.

Revenue and margins
Net income and earnings per share
From fiscal 2016 to 2022, earnings per share grew 19.2% a year and net income 18.7% a year, as buybacks cut the share count by 2%. O-I Glass then lost money in fiscal 2023, 2024 and 2025.

Valuation
Two ways to value O-I Glass yourself, both starting from its filings: a discounted cash flow model and the price-to-earnings method.
Discounted cash flow (DCF)
A discounted cash flow (DCF) model values a business as the cash it may generate in future, discounted back to today. The starting figures come from O-I Glass' 10-K (or, for net cash and shares, its latest 10-Q) and the assumptions are yours: start from one of three example scenarios, then change any figure to see what it implies for a share, and how that compares with the last share price.
Value per share on three example scenarios, from O-I Glass' fiscal 2025 free cash flow of $168M, net cash of −$4.2B at December 31, 2025 and 154 million diluted shares, from its filings. The scenarios are fitted to O-I Glass: the base scenario's growth in years 1 to 5 is its revenue growth over the last 3 years, -2.1% a year, kept between 0% and 20%; the cautious and optimistic ones are lower and higher, and growth in years 6 to 10 is halfway to the long-run rate. The base scenario's discount rate is 13%: 11% for a cyclical or higher-risk business (Metal, Glass & Plastic Containers), plus 1 point as a smaller company, worth $989M, plus 1 point for unsteady results (a loss in fiscal 2025); the cautious and optimistic ones use a point more and a point less. Select one to load it into the calculator. These are the model's arithmetic on those assumptions, not a forecast or a price target. A negative value means O-I Glass' net debt is larger than what that scenario's cash flows are worth today.

How the value changes with two assumptions
Price-to-earnings (P/E) method
Another common way to value a company is to multiply its earnings per share by a price-to-earnings (P/E) multiple: the number of years of today's earnings an investor pays for a share. A higher multiple usually means investors expect earnings to grow. Choose a multiple, for example from similar companies, to see the value it gives.
The P/E method needs positive earnings, and O-I Glass' latest diluted earnings per share were negative or zero.

Piotroski F-score
The F-score counts how many of nine simple tests of profitability, funding and efficiency a company passed in a year (Piotroski, 2000). The more tests passed, the stronger the year: 8 or 9 is strong, 0 to 2 weak. Companies that report no gross profit are scored on the other eight.
