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

326.75M USD

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

Profit

710.73M USD

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

FCFF

710.73M USD

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

Intrinsic Value

582.74M USD

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

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

Earnings power value plus growth: 326.75M 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-612.0%

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): 710.73M 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, 710.73M 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: 12.35%
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 1.32×Market Risk Premium 6.00%= 12.40%

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 16.30M USDPretax Income 34.20M USD= 47.66%

The tax the interest saves.

Interest Expense =EBIT 21.01M USD−Pretax Income 34.20M USD= —

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

No interest is read: it needs debt and an EBIT above the profit before tax, the gap between them being the interest. Without it the cost of debt takes the 4% default.

Cost of Debt 4.00% (default): with no debt or no interest read, the 4% default after tax stands for what the lenders are paid a year.

Debt Weight =Total Debt 13.99M USDMarket Cap + Total Debt 2.33B USD + 13.99M USD= 0.60%

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

WACC =Equity Weight 99.40%×Cost of Equity 12.40%+Debt Weight 0.60%×Cost of Debt 4.00%= 12.35%

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 955.36M USD − Total Liabilities 244.63M USD = Book Value Today 710.73M USD

Total Debt 13.99M USD − Cash and Short-Term Investments 194.50M USD = Net Debt Today -180.50M 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.
