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.

What it is worth

EPV + Growth

532.92M USD

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

Profit

532.92M USD

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

FCFF

532.92M USD

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

Average Intrinsic Value

Margin of Safety

1 − Market Cap / Average Intrinsic Value

Projections, not exact values. Intrinsic Values are projected from each company's past reports. They show which stocks look cheap compared with the others, not exactly what a stock is worth.

Earnings power value plus growth: 532.92M 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 NOPAT at or below zero this year), so the value is the book value today, 532.92M USD.

Market value

Value vs market

Margin of Safety-929.6%

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): 532.92M 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, 532.92M 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: 6.11%
Cost of Equity =Risk-Free Rate 4.50%+Beta 0.31×Market Risk Premium 6.00%= 6.34%

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 25.00% (default): the statements print a tax provision of 0 USD on a pretax income of -329.27M USD, which gives no rate between 0 and the profit before tax, so the 25% default stands for the tax the interest saves.

Interest Expense =EBIT -326.20M USD−Pretax Income -329.27M USD= 3.07M USD

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

Cost of Debt =Interest Expense 3.07M USDTotal Debt 244.51M USD×(1 − Tax Rate for WACC 25.00%)= 0.94%

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

Debt Weight =Total Debt 244.51M USDMarket Cap + Total Debt 5.49B USD + 244.51M USD= 4.27%

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

WACC =Equity Weight 95.73%×Cost of Equity 6.34%+Debt Weight 4.27%×Cost of Debt 0.94%= 6.11%

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 835.38M USD − Total Liabilities 302.46M USD = Book Value Today 532.92M USD

Total Debt 244.51M USD − Cash and Short-Term Investments 793.09M USD = Net Debt Today -548.59M 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.

Quality metrics
