How Each Value Is Built

The screener's three formulas on the reported figures. Each card reads the same way: the value as a sum of numbered terms, each term's calculation opened under it, from the reported figures to the value. The list ranks companies by their plain average over the market cap.

EPV + Growth

7.55B USD

what the normal year's earnings are worth for ever, plus growth that pays

Profit

7.55B USD

15 years of cash the shareholders can take out, and the equity left at year 15

FCFF

7.55B USD

15 years of cash for shareholders and lenders, less what is owed

Intrinsic Value

7.55B USD

the plain average of the three, uncapped, as the screener averages them

the ratio the screener ranks by; Margin of Safety +10.7% (1 − Market Cap ÷ Intrinsic Value)

Each card below builds one of the three values from the reported years.

Earnings power value plus growth: 7.55B USD
What the normal year's operating profit after tax is worth if it lasts for ever, plus what the new investment adds beyond its cost, less the net debt that comes before the shareholders (or plus the net cash).

The earnings power value was not computed (a normalized NOPAT at or below zero), so the value is the book value today, 7.55B USD.

Market value

Market Cap6.74B USD

Today's price times the shares.

Value vs market

Margin of Safety+10.7%

1 minus the market cap as a share of the value.

Profit value: today's value of the shareholders' equity, from the cash it can pay them (FCFE): 7.55B USD
Fifteen years of free cash flow to equity (FCFE), each brought to today at the cost of equity, plus the equity at year 15 brought to today.

The projection was not made (a profit at or below zero in the latest three years), so the value is the book value today, 7.55B USD, as the screener leaves it.

FCFF value: today's value of the shareholders' equity, from the cash the firm can pay its shareholders and lenders (FCFF): 7.55B USD
Fifteen years of free cash flow to the firm (FCFF), each brought to today at the WACC, plus the invested capital at year 15 brought to today, less the net debt today (or plus the net cash).

The projection was not made (a change in working capital above half the operating profit in the latest three years), so the value is the book value today, 7.55B USD, as the screener leaves it.

The Rates and the Capital the Values Read

The WACC and the cost of equity each value is discounted at, the book value and the net debt each starts from, and the seven quality metrics, from the same run.

WACC: 2.38%
weighted average cost of capital: the yearly return the shareholders and the lenders together require, weighted by what each puts in; the rate that brings the firm's future cash to today.
Cost of Equity =Risk-Free Rate 4.50%+Beta 0.35×Market Risk Premium 6.00%= 6.62%

The yearly return the shareholders require for the risk they carry; it is the rate that brings their future cash to today.

Tax Rate for WACC =Tax Provision 304.19M USDPretax Income 688.36M USD= 44.19%

The tax the interest saves.

Interest Expense =EBIT 1.48B USD−Pretax Income 688.36M USD= 794.52M USD

The interest the company paid: EBIT is the profit before tax plus the interest.

Cost of Debt =Interest Expense 794.52M USDTotal Debt 30.61B USD×(1 − Tax Rate for WACC 44.19%)= 1.45%

What the lenders are paid a year after the tax the interest saves.

Debt Weight =Total Debt 30.61B USDMarket Cap + Total Debt 6.74B USD + 30.61B USD= 81.95%

The part of the capital the lenders put in, at market value.

WACC =Equity Weight 18.05%×Cost of Equity 6.62%+Debt Weight 81.95%×Cost of Debt 1.45%= 2.38%

Weighted average cost of capital: the yearly return the shareholders and the lenders together require, weighted by what each puts in; the rate that brings the firm's future cash to today.

Book value and net debt today
Both from the balance sheet of the newest quarter, 2026-06-30.

Total Assets 53.59B USD − Total Liabilities 46.04B USD = Book Value Today 7.55B USD

Total Debt 30.61B USD − Cash and Short-Term Investments 2.54B USD = Net Debt Today 28.07B USD

The book value is what Profit starts from and what stands when a projection is not made; the book value plus the net debt is what FCFF starts from; the net debt comes off Greenwald's and FCFF's values before the shareholders.
