BALL key financials
Reported figures from Ball Corporation's filings, pulled directly from SEC XBRL data rather than a third-party terminal. Each row links to the filing it came from.
| Metric | Value | Period | Source |
|---|---|---|---|
| Operating cash flow | $1.3B | 2025-01-01 – 2025-12-31 | SEC filing |
| Diluted EPS | $3.30 | 2025-01-01 – 2025-12-31 | SEC filing |
| Shares outstanding | 268M | As of 2025-10-31 | SEC filing |
Values are as tagged by the issuer in XBRL. Revenue for banks and insurers is net of interest expense where that is the reported line. Fiscal years that do not follow the calendar are shown by their period-end date. No price, market cap, or valuation multiple is shown because Yield Theory does not republish unlicensed market data.
Diluted EPS is the earnings figure behind the price-to-earnings ratio; the P/E multiple compression calculator shows how a change in that multiple moves a share price. Shares outstanding multiplied by the share price gives market capitalization.
