Economic Moat
Evidence of durable competitive advantage in the filed financials (10 years of history).
Profit margins and economic moats, explainedThe numbers don't show a durable competitive advantage — margins, growth, or returns on capital have been unstable or thin. Great returns are still possible; they just aren't protected.
17.5% average over the last 3 years
±5.5 pts around 22.7% across 10 years
grew in 8 of the last 9 year-over-year periods
positive in 5 of 10 years
6.0% latest fiscal year
A moat can't be proven by numbers alone — this scores the evidence a durable advantage leaves behind (pricing power, consistency, returns on capital), computed the same way for every stock. Pair it with the business overview before concluding anything.
Technical Analysis (Educational)
Technical analysis reads price and volume to judge momentum and timing. It complements the fundamentals above — it does not replace them. Here is what MUFG's chart says today, with each tool explained.
Trend — moving averages. A moving average is the average closing price over a window, which smooths out daily noise. MUFG trades near $21.89, above its 50-day average ($19.20) and 200-day average ($17.32). Price above both averages, with the shorter one above the longer, is the textbook definition of an uptrend — momentum favours buyers.
Momentum — RSI. The Relative Strength Index runs 0–100 and measures how strong recent gains are versus losses. Above 70 is "overbought", below 30 "oversold". At 62 it is in neutral territory — neither stretched nor washed out.
MACD. MACD compares two moving averages to flag shifts in momentum. Its histogram is currently negative — short-term momentum is fading.
Volatility — ATR. Average True Range is the typical daily move. MUFG's is $0.43 (~2.0% of price), so swings of about that size each day are normal — handy for setting a stop that isn't too tight.
Support & resistance. In the month to Jul 6, 2026, MUFG found buyers near $19.57 (support) and sellers near $21.18 (resistance); its 52-week range then was $13.19–$21.18. A decisive break beyond either edge often marks the next move.
Volume. The latest session traded 0.7× the 20-day average — lighter than usual, so the move carries less conviction. Rising volume on up-days suggests real buying; on down-days, real selling.

Revenue Growth
4Y CAGR
31.9%
Revenue moved from $28.06B in 2017 to $79.51B in 2026, a 12.3% compound annual growth rate. The most recent year grew a strong 75.2% year over year. Consistent top-line growth is one sign of healthy demand.
Profitability
Gross Margin
—
Operating Margin
19.9%
Net Margin
14.6%
ROE
11.5%
Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group Inc keeps about 25.7% of each sales dollar as net profit. Return on equity is 11.5% and return on invested capital about 6.0%. Margins this wide usually signal pricing power or a cost advantage.
Debt Analysis
Total Debt
$78.10B
Net Debt
$61.79B
Net Debt / EBITDA
3.9x
Debt / Equity
3.64x
Leverage: debt-to-equity is 3.6x, and operating profit covers interest about 0.5x. That is elevated leverage, which raises risk if earnings or rates move against it. It carries roughly $78.10B of total debt against $16.31B of cash.
Cash Flow Analysis
Operating CF
-$22.56B
Free Cash Flow
-$24.58B
FCF Margin
-30.9%
In the latest year Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group Inc produced about -$22.56B of operating cash flow but negative free cash flow as it invested heavily. Cash flow is what ultimately pays shareholders, so it is worth tracking over time.
Dividend Safety

Educational scenario model, not a forecast or investment advice. It starts from the latest annual revenue in SEC filings. By default, growth is trailing revenue growth (held between 3% and 45% a year), the net margin is the latest one (held between 3% and 50%, so a loss-making company is modeled with a small profit), and the Base case P/E runs from 60% to 100% of today's. Carrying recent growth forward five years can miss badly in either direction. Outputs are only as good as the assumptions.
Bull Case
The case for MUFG:
- Revenue is growing 75.2% a year, a sign of real demand.
- High net margins (25.7%) point to pricing power or efficiency.
- Pays a 2.8% dividend on top of any price gains.
- Our model's overall read is Strong (73/100).
Bear Case
The case against MUFG:
- Elevated leverage (debt/equity 3.6x) adds financial risk.
- Interest coverage is thin (0.5x), so debt costs bite.
Key Risks
Balance-sheet risk — debt/equity of 3.6x magnifies the impact of higher rates or weaker earnings.
Market risk — sector rotation, the economic cycle, and broad sentiment move the stock regardless of fundamentals.
Investment Thesis
On balance, the fundamentals screen favourably: Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group Inc is a mega-cap financials business still growing nicely, with solid profitability, and a heavier debt load to watch. It trades at 15.8x earnings, which our model scores Strong (73/100). Weigh this against your own goals and time horizon — this is educational information, not a recommendation.

How is the 5-year projection for MUFG calculated?
It's a scenario model. It starts from the latest annual revenue and net margin in SEC filings, grows revenue at an assumed rate (trailing revenue growth by default), and applies a P/E range built around today's multiple to show the resulting share-price range.
