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 1.47x of reported net profit; after capex, 1.31x.

cash flow / profit1.33x0.82x1.67x1.47x1.52x
accruals, % of assets-2.9%1.9%-6.8%-5.1%-4.3%
Last twelve months (to 2026-05-31): 1.53x of profit came back as operating cash flow.
net debt / EBITDA 0.8x · EBIT covers interest 13.3x · capex 0.6x of depreciation · dividends 4% of free cash flow · share count -3.5% a year
● Capex is 58% of depreciation - the asset base is being consumed faster than replaced.
Regulated utilities and networks run on long-dated debt against a tariff-set asset base; the leverage bar is set higher for them here.
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: +27.6%

How this was calculated
1. EBITDA growth (latest quarter YoY, annualised)
[EBITDA latest qtr − EBITDA year-ago qtr] × annualisation X (2026-05-31 vs 2025-05-31)
= (234 − 174) × 3.55
212
2. Current EV/EBITDA (LTM)
(Market cap + Net debt) ÷ EBITDA (LTM)
= (11 004 + 532) ÷ 832
13.9x
3. Target multiple
(Current EV/EBITDA + 12) ÷ 2
= (13.9 + 12) ÷ 2
12.9x
4. Cash flow (balance method, LTM)
Net-debt reduction + dividends + buybacks − equity issuance
= 182 + 17 + 103 − 2
302
5. Value created per year
(EBITDA growth × Target multiple + Cash flow − Dilution) ÷ Market cap
= (212 × 12.9 + 302) ÷ 11 004
+27.6%

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

Caveats:

  • equity issuance measured by share-count dilution at market, not the cash line

Revenue growth & acceleration

Growth accelerating ▲
Last-year revenue growth +13% vs -3% the year before — a +16.0 pp move. 3-year CAGR +3%.
revenue growth by year: 2023 -1% · 2024 -3% · 2025 +13%
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).
