Shares: connector/market_inputs

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 B 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 4.79x of reported net profit; after capex, 0.57x.

accruals, % of assets-10.9%-9.4%-10.4%-12.7%-10.0%
Last twelve months (to 2026-06-30): 8.13x of profit came back as operating cash flow.
net debt / EBITDA 2.3x · EBIT covers interest 1.2x · capex 0.9x of depreciation
● EBIT covers interest 1.2x.
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: ≤-300.0%

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)
= (1 212 − 1 119) × 3.97
93
2. Current EV/EBITDA (LTM)
(Market cap + Net debt) ÷ EBITDA (LTM)
= (2 059 + 801 078) ÷ 4 818
30.0x — capped at 30x
3. Target multiple
(Current EV/EBITDA + 6.5) ÷ 2
= (30.0 + 6.5) ÷ 2
18.2x
4. Cash flow (balance method, LTM)
Net-debt reduction + dividends + buybacks − equity issuance
= -791 142 + 0 + 0 − 0
-791 142
5. Value created per year
(EBITDA growth × Target multiple + Cash flow − Dilution) ÷ Market cap
= (93 × 18.2 + -791 142) ÷ 2 059
≤-300.0%

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

Caveats:

  • dividends/buybacks not in data - balance cash flow uses net-debt change only
  • growth discounted x0.25: EBITDA grew but net profit FELL while net debt rose - debt-funded growth not reaching equity (interest drag)

Revenue growth & acceleration

Growth steady →
Last-year revenue growth +12% vs +10% the year before — a +1.7 pp move. 3-year CAGR +12%.
revenue growth by year: 2023 +13% · 2024 +10% · 2025 +12%
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).

Dividend potential

Dividend-model upside: +22%

The payout is forecast from smoothed profit × payout ratio, capped by free cash flow (developers exempt — escrow) and floored at the recent actual dividend (companies hold payouts while profitable). Fair yield = key rate + the historical yield-spread to the rate (so growers that historically traded below the rate score higher). Upside = fair price / current − 1.
