Amounts: USD (converted) · As reported
Converted modes use NBK / ECB-linked rates: balance sheet date for BS items, period average for P&L and cash flow (see filing row evidence). As reported keeps each row in its filing currency.

Financial results

Monetary columns are in M USD, one decimal; scale (K/M/B/T) keeps values readable. For the period (default) shows P&L and cash flow for that row’s reporting window: quarterly amounts when the feed uses quarter-duration facts (typical US 10-Q revenue and income), quarterly cash flows after stripping YTD where only cumulative tags exist, and an implied Q4 on 31 Dec FY rows (P&L: FY minus Q1–Q3; operating / investing cash flow: FY 12m minus 9M YTD to 30 Sep when sourced from SEC builder evidence) so they match 10-Q scale. Some issuers still use cumulative YTD minus the prior row in the same calendar year. As reported shows values stored on each row (e.g. full-year on FY). Balance sheet is always as reported. Source JSON may use millions etc.; conversion uses amounts_unit per row.

Profit and cash

Profit is cash-backed
In a typical year of 2023–2025 operating cash flow came to 7.38x of reported net profit; after capex, 5.18x.
year202320242025
cash flow / profit5.18x18.62x7.38x
accruals, % of assets-16.1%-16.4%-19.8%
Last twelve months (to 2026-03-31): 8.35x of profit came back as operating cash flow.
net debt / EBITDA 1.7x · capex 0.7x of depreciation
Read from the reported annual statements: cash flow / profit is the median of the yearly operating cash flow over net profit for the years shown; accruals are (profit − operating cash flow) / assets, the classic gap between what was booked and what was collected. A gap can be growth in working capital, capitalised costs, revaluations or profit from associates — the panel points at it, the statements explain it. Not investment advice.

Fundamental value creation

Value the company creates per year, as a % of market cap

Value created per year: +269.1%

How this was calculated
1. EBITDA growth (latest quarter YoY, annualised)
[EBITDA latest qtr − EBITDA year-ago qtr] × annualisation X (2026-03-31 vs 2025-03-31)
= (218 − 141) × 3.90
-166
2. Current EV/EBITDA (LTM)
(Market cap + Net debt) ÷ EBITDA (LTM)
= (1 951 + 1 649) ÷ 851
4.2x
3. Target multiple
(Current EV/EBITDA + 9) ÷ 2
= (4.2 + 9) ÷ 2
6.6x
4. Cash flow (balance method, LTM)
Net-debt reduction + dividends + buybacks − equity issuance
= 731 + 0 + 6 350 − 0
6 350
5. Value created per year
(EBITDA growth × Target multiple + Cash flow − Dilution) ÷ Market cap
= (-166 × 6.6 + 6 350) ÷ 1 951
+269.1%

Amounts in millions of the reporting currency. EBITDA growth is the latest quarter vs the same quarter a year ago, annualised.

Caveats:

  • net-cash rise stripped: net debt fell while EBITDA declined and no share dilution measured (likely equity raise / recapitalisation)
  • EBITDA growth from 3-yr FY trend, min of avg & latest YoY (anomalous latest-period delta)

Revenue growth & acceleration

Growth steady →
Last-year revenue growth +7% vs +6% the year before — a +1.4 pp move. 3-year CAGR —.
revenue growth by year: 2024 +6% · 2025 +7%
The growth-acceleration signal behind the GARP+acceleration strategy — it favours companies whose revenue growth is speeding up and flags those slowing down (the second derivative of growth).
