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 RUB, 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 2021–2025 operating cash flow came to 7.59x of reported net profit; after capex, 2.10x. Loss years (2022, 2023, 2024, 2025) are left out of the ratio.

Last twelve months (to H1 2026): 2.81x of profit came back as operating cash flow.

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.

EBITDA − SBC (less share-based compensation)

The company EXPENSES development (capex/capitalisation is clean), but its adjusted EBITDA EXCLUDES share-based compensation. EBITDA − SBC restores that real cost.

Fundamental value creation

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

Value created per year: +10.2%

How this was calculated
1. EBITDA growth (latest quarter YoY, annualised)
[EBITDA latest qtr − EBITDA year-ago qtr] × annualisation X
= —
2 618
2. Current EV/EBITDA (LTM)
(Market cap + Net debt) ÷ EBITDA (LTM)
= (70 216 + 62 753) ÷ 33 710
3.9x
3. Target multiple
(Current EV/EBITDA + 6.5) ÷ 2
= (3.9 + 6.5) ÷ 2
5.2x
4. Cash flow (balance method, LTM)
Net-debt reduction + dividends + buybacks − equity issuance
= 8 237 + 0 + 0 − 0
-6 502
5. Value created per year
(EBITDA growth × Target multiple + Cash flow − Dilution) ÷ Market cap
= (2 618 × 5.2 + -6 502) ÷ 70 216
+10.2%

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

Caveats:

  • LTM EBITDA = FY2025 + H12026 - H12025 (cumulative-YTD reporter); ΔEBITDA vs prior full year

Revenue growth & acceleration

Growth decelerating ▼
Last-year revenue growth +8% vs +23% the year before — a -14.3 pp move. 3-year CAGR +18%.
revenue growth by year: 2023 +23% · 2024 +23% · 2025 +8%
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).
