• P/E ratio (13.7) — how many dollars you pay for each $1 of AFL's yearly profit. That's on the low side, which can mean it's cheap — or that the market is worried.
• ROE (16.47%) — how efficiently the company turns shareholders' money into profit. This is a middling level.
• Profit margin (25.60%) — of every $1 in sales, this is what's left as profit after all costs.
• Dividend yield (2.03%) — the cash payout you'd earn per year as a % of the share price, on top of any price gains.
