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

1.67B USD

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

Profit

2.29B USD

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

FCFF

2.23B USD

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

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: 1.67B 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).

With a positive equity reinvestment the two stacked are the year's normalized income; with a negative one the grey is below zero, capital the business releases, and the normalized income is the FCFE plus that negative amount.

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: 8.64%
Cost of Equity =Risk-Free Rate 4.50%+Beta 1.15×Market Risk Premium 6.00%= 11.37%

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 80.92M USDPretax Income 333.79M USD= 24.24%

The tax the interest saves.

Interest Expense =EBIT 403.33M USD−Pretax Income 333.79M USD= 69.54M USD

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

Cost of Debt =Interest Expense 69.54M USDTotal Debt 2.40B USD×(1 − Tax Rate for WACC 24.24%)= 2.20%

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

Debt Weight =Total Debt 2.40B USDMarket Cap + Total Debt 5.67B USD + 2.40B USD= 29.72%

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

WACC =Equity Weight 70.28%×Cost of Equity 11.37%+Debt Weight 29.72%×Cost of Debt 2.20%= 8.64%

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 4.05B USD − Total Liabilities 4.01B USD = Book Value Today 33.47M USD

Total Debt 2.40B USD − Cash and Short-Term Investments 609.82M USD = Net Debt Today 1.79B 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
