Intrinsic / Market Ratio

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.

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

-302.82M USD

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

Profit

707.46M USD

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

FCFF

707.46M USD

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

Intrinsic Value

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

Earnings power value plus growth: -302.82M 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).

Value vs market

Margin of Safety—

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): 707.46M 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, 707.46M USD, as the screener leaves it.

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, 707.46M 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: 8.03%
Cost of Equity =Risk-Free Rate 4.50%+Beta 1.30×Market Risk Premium 6.00%= 12.32%

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 38.31M USDPretax Income 68.85M USD= 55.64%

The tax the interest saves.

Interest Expense =EBIT 165.39M USD−Pretax Income 68.85M USD= 96.53M USD

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

Cost of Debt =Interest Expense 96.53M USDTotal Debt 1.71B USD×(1 − Tax Rate for WACC 55.64%)= 2.51%

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

Debt Weight =Total Debt 1.71B USDMarket Cap + Total Debt 2.20B USD + 1.71B USD= 43.70%

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

WACC =Equity Weight 56.30%×Cost of Equity 12.32%+Debt Weight 43.70%×Cost of Debt 2.51%= 8.03%

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 4.20B USD − Total Liabilities 3.50B USD = Book Value Today 707.46M USD

Total Debt 1.71B USD − Cash and Short-Term Investments 109.58M USD = Net Debt Today 1.60B 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
