Based on FY2025 annual data. Scores normalized against common benchmarks. How we calculate these scores

Profitability

100

Intercontinental Exchange Inc has an operating margin of 39.0%, meaning the company retains $39 of operating profit per $100 of revenue. This strong profitability earns a score of 100/100, reflecting efficient cost management and pricing power. This is up from 36.6% the prior year.

Growth

Intercontinental Exchange Inc's revenue grew 7.5% year-over-year to $12.6B, a solid pace of expansion. This earns a growth score of 50/100.

Leverage

Intercontinental Exchange Inc carries a low D/E ratio of 0.64, meaning only $0.64 of long-term debt for every $1 of shareholders' equity. This conservative leverage earns a score of 87/100, indicating a strong balance sheet with room for future borrowing.

Liquidity

Intercontinental Exchange Inc's current ratio of 1.02 means current assets barely cover short-term liabilities. This tight liquidity results in a low score of 21/100, which could limit financial flexibility.

Returns

Intercontinental Exchange Inc's ROE of 11.5% shows moderate profitability relative to equity, earning a score of 46/100. This is up from 10.0% the prior year.

Altman Z-Score Distress

0.91

Intercontinental Exchange Inc scores 0.91, below the 1.81 distress threshold. The score is driven primarily by a large market capitalization ($86.5B) relative to total liabilities ($107.9B). This indicates elevated financial distress risk and warrants close attention to liquidity and debt levels.
