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.

Our earnings breakdowns and investment notes on this issuer.
Value the company creates per year, as a % of market cap
Value created per year: +20.3%
| 1. EBITDA growth (latest quarter YoY, annualised) [EBITDA latest qtr − EBITDA year-ago qtr] × annualisation X (2026-09-30 vs 2025-09-30) = (6 563 − 5 414) × 4.13 | 4 746 |
| 2. Current EV/EBITDA (LTM) (Market cap + Net debt) ÷ EBITDA (LTM) = (378 722 + 38 977) ÷ 27 110 | 15.4x |
| 3. Target multiple (Current EV/EBITDA + 12) ÷ 2 = (15.4 + 12) ÷ 2 | 13.7x |
| 4. Cash flow (balance method, LTM) Net-debt reduction + dividends + buybacks − equity issuance = 10 545 + 2 005 + 0 − 231 | 12 550 |
| 4b. Share dilution (at market, LTM) Share-count growth over the year × Market cap = 0.2% × 378 722 | −834 |
| 5. Value created per year (EBITDA growth × Target multiple + Cash flow − Dilution) ÷ Market cap = (4 746 × 13.7 + 12 550 − 834) ÷ 378 722 | +20.3% |

| This company | US | 378.7 | 15.4x | 15.4x |
Group median 12.2x as traded, 24.8x adjusted; this company 15.4x — a 38% discount.
Group average 14.9x as traded, 25.4x adjusted; against the average this company is at a 39% discount.
At the adjusted group median the market cap would be +70% versus today.
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 20.4x, Russia 3.7x, South Africa 5.0x, Kazakhstan 4.6x, India 18.6x, Indonesia 5.4x); it is about where a name is listed, not what it does.
