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

2.33B USD

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

Profit

1.92B USD

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

FCFF

1.89B USD

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

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: 13.60%
Cost of Equity =Risk-Free Rate 4.50%+Beta 1.54×Market Risk Premium 6.00%= 13.75%

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 54.41M USDPretax Income 325.34M USD= 16.72%

The tax the interest saves.

Interest Expense =EBIT 329.81M USD−Pretax Income 325.34M USD= 4.47M USD

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

Cost of Debt =Interest Expense 4.47M USDTotal Debt 313.92M USD×(1 − Tax Rate for WACC 16.72%)= 1.19%

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

Debt Weight =Total Debt 313.92M USDMarket Cap + Total Debt 25.46B USD + 313.92M USD= 1.22%

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

WACC =Equity Weight 98.78%×Cost of Equity 13.75%+Debt Weight 1.22%×Cost of Debt 1.19%= 13.60%

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, 2025-12-31.

Total Assets 1.60B USD − Total Liabilities 593.88M USD = Book Value Today 1.00B USD

Total Debt 313.92M USD − Cash and Short-Term Investments 178.25M USD = Net Debt Today 135.67M 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.
