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

Worth a look
In a typical year of 2021–2025 operating cash flow came to -7.25x of reported net profit. Loss years (2022, 2023, 2024, 2025) are left out of the ratio.
year20212022202320242025
cash flow / profit-7.25x————
accruals, % of assets11.2%-6.5%47.3%25.7%15.6%
net debt / EBITDA 8.3x · capex 3.5x of depreciation
● Accruals average 18.7% of assets a year - profit runs ahead of cash.
● Net debt / EBITDA 8.3x at the last full year.
Real estate: profit carries investment-property revaluations and, for developers, buyer money that sits in escrow until handover - neither passes through operating cash flow, so profit above cash is structural here. Judge the leverage against escrow coverage and against the rent roll, not against this ratio.
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.

Earnings ex-capitalized interest

Developers fund construction with project financing and, under IAS 23, capitalize the interest into inventory (construction-in-progress) instead of expensing it. At a high key rate this understates the true interest burden in EBITDA and net profit. Below: earnings as if ALL interest were expensed.

✅ Inventory (property held for sale) is not a qualifying asset under IAS 23 — Etalon does NOT capitalize interest, it expenses it. Earnings already reflect the full interest burden.

Fundamental value creation

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

Value created per year: -40.0%

How this was calculated
1. EBITDA growth (latest quarter YoY, annualised)
[EBITDA latest qtr − EBITDA year-ago qtr] × annualisation X (2026-06-30 vs 2025-06-30)
= (106 − 181) × 2.27
-22
2. Current EV/EBITDA (LTM)
(Market cap + Net debt) ÷ EBITDA (LTM)
= (192 + 2 428) ÷ 240
10.9x
3. Target multiple
(Current EV/EBITDA + 6.5) ÷ 2
= (10.9 + 6.5) ÷ 2
8.7x
4. Cash flow (balance method, LTM)
Net-debt reduction + dividends + buybacks − equity issuance
= 116 + 0 + 0 − 0
116
5. Value created per year
(EBITDA growth × Target multiple + Cash flow − Dilution) ÷ Market cap
= (-22 × 8.7 + 116) ÷ 192
-40.0%

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

Caveats:

  • half-year basis (semi-annual reporter)
  • dividends/buybacks not in data - balance cash flow uses net-debt change only
  • EBITDA-growth term damped to the multi-year FY trend SIZE but kept the latest period direction (down) - the trend pointed the other way
  • EBITDA-growth term clamped to ±market cap

Revenue growth & acceleration

Growth decelerating ▼
Last-year revenue growth +17% vs +44% the year before — a -27.1 pp move. 3-year CAGR +24%.
revenue growth by year: 2023 +13% · 2024 +44% · 2025 +17%
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).

Group median 8.6x; this company 10.9x — a 27% premium.

Group average 14.5x; against the average this company is at a 24% discount. The average sits 68% above the median: LSR Group (41.1x) skews the group.

The gap and the implied upside are measured against the median: one richly priced peer moves an average, not a median. The market adjustment uses our coverage medians (US 20.9x, Russia 3.7x, South Africa 5.0x, Kazakhstan 4.7x, India 18.8x, Indonesia 5.1x); it is about where a name is listed, not what it does.

Dividend potential

Dividends suspended (~4.9 yr without a payout)

The company has not paid a dividend for over 18 months — profit is going to capex or deleveraging (e.g. Nornickel, NLMK, RusHydro, FSK). The forecast payout is zeroed until distributions resume; profit and cash flow may still be healthy.
