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

Profit is cash-backed
In a typical year of 2018–2022 operating cash flow came to 2.31x of reported net profit; after capex, 0.92x. Loss years (2019, 2020) are left out of the ratio.

accruals, % of assets-12.1%-8.7%-4.2%-4.1%-1.3%
Last twelve months (to 2026-07-03): 0.42x of profit came back as operating cash flow.
net debt / EBITDA 1.5x · EBIT covers interest 7.9x · capex 0.6x of depreciation · dividends 23% of free cash flow · share count +0.7% a year
Over the last twelve months operating cash flow covered 42% of profit, against 2x across the annual window.
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: +26.9%

How this was calculated
1. EBITDA growth (latest quarter YoY, annualised)
[EBITDA latest qtr − EBITDA year-ago qtr] × annualisation X (2026-07-03 vs 2025-06-27)
= (1 662 − 767) × 3.01
2 697
2. Current EV/EBITDA (LTM)
(Market cap + Net debt) ÷ EBITDA (LTM)
= (176 554 + -527) ÷ 5 008
30.0x — capped at 30x
3. Target multiple
(Current EV/EBITDA + 12) ÷ 2
= (30.0 + 12) ÷ 2
21.0x
4. Cash flow (balance method, LTM)
Net-debt reduction + dividends + buybacks − equity issuance
= 3 124 + 120 + 1 920 − 0
5 164
4b. Share dilution (at market, LTM)
Share-count growth over the year × Market cap
= 8.1% × 176 554
−14 302
5. Value created per year
(EBITDA growth × Target multiple + Cash flow − Dilution) ÷ Market cap
= (2 697 × 21.0 + 5 164 − 14 302) ÷ 176 554
+26.9%

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

Caveats:

  • share-count dilution 8.1%/yr (valued at market: -14302)

Revenue growth & acceleration

Growth accelerating ▲
Last-year revenue growth +11% vs +1% the year before — a +9.9 pp move. 3-year CAGR +4%.
revenue growth by year: 2020 +1% · 2021 +1% · 2022 +11%
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).
