The Return Trends At KSB SE KGaA (ETR:KSB) Look Promising

To find a multi-bagger stock, what are the underlying trends we should look for in a business? Firstly, we'll want to see a proven return on capital employed (ROCE) that is increasing, and secondly, an expanding base of capital employed. This shows us that it's a compounding machine, able to continually reinvest its earnings back into the business and generate higher returns. Speaking of which, we noticed some great changes in KSB SE KGaA's (ETR:KSB) returns on capital, so let's have a look. We've discovered 1 warning sign about KSB SE KGaA. View them for free. If you haven't worked with ROCE before, it measures the 'return' (pre-tax profit) a company generates from capital employed in its business. To calculate this metric for KSB SE KGaA, this is the formula: Return on Capital Employed = Earnings Before Interest and Tax (EBIT) ÷ (Total Assets - Current Liabilities) 0.13 = €243m ÷ (€2.9b - €983m) (Based on the trailing twelve months to December 2024). Thus, KSB SE KGaA has an ROCE of 13%. In absolute terms, that's a satisfactory return, but compared to the Machinery industry average of 8.7% it's much better. Check out our latest analysis for KSB SE KGaA In the above chart we have measured KSB SE KGaA's prior ROCE against its prior performance, but the future is arguably more important. If you'd like, you can check out the forecasts from the analysts covering KSB SE KGaA for free. KSB SE KGaA has not disappointed with their ROCE growth. More specifically, while the company has kept capital employed relatively flat over the last five years, the ROCE has climbed 115% in that same time. So our take on this is that the business has increased efficiencies to generate these higher returns, all the while not needing to make any additional investments. It's worth looking deeper into this though because while it's great that the business is more efficient, it might also mean that going forward the areas to invest internally for the organic growth are lacking. In summary, we're delighted to see that KSB SE KGaA has been able to increase efficiencies and earn higher rates of return on the same amount of capital. And a remarkable 309% total return over the last five years tells us that investors are expecting more good things to come in the future. In light of that, we think it's worth looking further into this stock because if KSB SE KGaA can keep these trends up, it could have a bright future ahead. One more thing to note, we've identified 1 warning sign with KSB SE KGaA and understanding it should be part of your investment process. While KSB SE KGaA may not currently earn the highest returns, we've compiled a list of companies that currently earn more than 25% return on equity. Check out this free list here.

The expedition will then continue to 16 schools in Sabah, beginning in Tawau and ending in Lahad Datu.

'Various initiatives to promote science, technology, and innovation (STI) have been launched, including this traveling exhibition in Borneo,' he said. He added that since 2023, the KSB initiative had been bringing STI learning directly to rural and remote areas in Sarawak and Sabah, making science more accessible and enjoyable. Themed 'Sains Itu Menyeronokkan' (Science is Fun), the KSB 2025 expedition will feature NSC's mobile exhibition bus and science activity van, offering engaging experiences to around 30,000 students across the 30 selected schools. 'The Madani Government views STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) talent development as a serious priority, in line with the nation's goal of producing more local professionals in the field to achieve high-tech nation status by 2030. 'In line with this, Mosti is committed to working closely with the Ministry of Education, Ministry of Higher Education, and strategic partners to promote a culture of STI through continuous out-of-classroom programmes targeted especially at children and school students to strengthen the National STEM Agenda,' he said. At the event, Chang also presented the NSC education kits containing interactive STEM activity materials and usage guides for informal learning sessions to eight district Education offices that would be visited by the Kembara Sains Borneo during MSN 2025 in Sarawak. bus education National Science Centre schools science exhibition

"Kembara Sains Borneo" Brings PSN Closer To Schools In Sabah, Sarawak

KUCHING, May 5 (Bernama) -- The National Science Centre (PSN) will deploy its exhibition bus to 30 selected locations across Sabah and Sarawak as part of the 'Kembara Sains Borneo (KSB)' programme in conjunction with the 2025 National Science Week. PSN director Mohammad Fuad Rahman said the exhibition bus, known as PSN Trooperz On The Move, is equipped with 20 interactive exhibition spaces specially designed to spark students' interest in science. "This initiative provides an opportunity for students who may not have the chance to visit the National Science Centre in the capital to experience it firsthand through the mobile exhibition brought directly to their location," he told reporters after the launch of the 2025 National Science Week programme here last night. He said the main focus of KSB is to bring students in remote and rural areas closer to the National Science Centre. "The selection of schools for the programme includes those in urban, rural, and interior areas, while participating students will range from primary to secondary school levels. 'For this KSB, we are not moving alone. We are collaborating with strategic partners, namely the National Planetarium, Akademik Sains Malaysia, Yayasan Inovasi Malaysia, and Petrosains,' he added. He said KSB does not solely focus on students but also engages Science and Mathematics teachers through dedicated training programmes designed to enhance teaching skills and knowledge. According to a statement from the Ministry of Science, Technology and Innovation (MOSTI), two flagship outreach programmes, the Kembara Sains Borneo dan Rehlah Sains, will be key highlights under the 2025 National Science Week initiative. These initiatives are part of MOSTI's strategic efforts to ensure the benefits of making science, technology, and innovation (STI) a culture reach all layers of society, including rural, suburban, and remote communities.
