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

Profit is cash-backed
In a typical year of 2021–2025 operating cash flow came to 1.30x of reported net profit; after capex, 1.16x.

cash flow / profit1.29x1.30x1.30x1.68x1.63x
accruals, % of assets-2.4%-2.5%-2.4%-3.3%-2.5%
Last twelve months (to 2026-09-30): 1.65x of profit came back as operating cash flow.
net debt / EBITDA 2.2x · EBIT covers interest 4.7x · capex 0.8x of depreciation · dividends 32% of free cash flow · share count -1.2% a year
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: +20.3%

How this was calculated
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%

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

Caveats:

  • FCF (LTM) approximated by latest FY (ended 2025-12-31, before the latest reported period 2026-09-30)
  • equity issuance measured by share-count dilution at market, not the cash line
  • share-count dilution 0.2%/yr (valued at market: -834)

Revenue growth & acceleration

Growth accelerating ▲
Last-year revenue growth +12% vs +8% the year before — a +4.1 pp move. 3-year CAGR +11%.
revenue growth by year: 2023 +15% · 2024 +8% · 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).

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. Peer multiples come from the nightly rebuild of 2026-10-24; the company's own is live.
