KEMET is a manufacturer of tantalum capacitors, multilayer ceramic capacitors, film capacitors, electrolytic capacitors, paper capacitors and solid aluminum capacitors, and Electro-Magnetic Compatible (EMC) devices, sensors, and actuators. Co. is organized into three reportable segments: Solid Capacitor, which produces tantalum, aluminum, polymer and ceramic capacitors; Film and Electrolytic, which produces film, paper and wet aluminum electrolytic capacitors as well as electromagnetic interference filters; and Electro-Magnetic, Sensors, and Actuators, which primarily produces EMC materials and devices, piezo materials and actuators and various types of sensors. The KEM YTD return is shown above.
The YTD Return on the KEM YTD return page and across the coverage universe of our site,
is a measure of the total return for a given investment year-to-date for the current calendar year
(up to the end of prior trading session). Arguably, choosing the current calendar year for a measurement
period is on the one hand completely arbitrary, but on the other hand a year-to-date look can be extremely
useful in the context of our country's tax system which taxes gains and income on a calendar year basis.
Thus, researching Year-To-Date Returns is good practice for investors — whether KEM YTD return or other benchmarks/peers
— and when doing so it is also important to factor in dividends, because a financial instrument's YTD return is
more than just the change in price if that instrument pays a dividend or coupon. Our website aims to empower investors
by performing the KEM YTD return calculation (with any dividends reinvested as applicable), and to provide a
coverage universe of many stocks and ETFs to be able to compare YTD returns.
