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

184.49M USD

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

Profit

277.57M USD

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

FCFF

184.49M USD

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

Intrinsic Value

215.52M 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: 184.49M 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 normalized NOPAT at or below zero), so the value is the book value today, 184.49M USD.

Profit value: today's value of the shareholders' equity, from the cash it can pay them (FCFE): 277.57M 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.

FCFE: the net income left for the shareholders once the business keeps what next year's growth needsEquity reinvestment: the part of the year's net income kept in the business to grow the next year; below zero, capital the business releases to the shareholdersPresent value of the FCFEColoured bars show the FCFE, grey bars the equity reinvestment. 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. Shaded, years 6 to 10: the growth falling to its long-run rate and the ROE on new investment falling to the cost of equity. Axes linear.

FCFF value: today's value of the shareholders' equity, from the cash the firm can pay its shareholders and lenders (FCFF): 184.49M USD
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 (an FCFF at or below zero in the latest three years), so the value is the book value today, 184.49M 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: 9.78%
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 1.24×Market Risk Premium 6.00%= 11.93%

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 -3.61M USD on a pretax income of 26.91M 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 29.69M USD−Pretax Income 26.91M USD= 2.77M USD

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

Cost of Debt =Interest Expense 2.77M USDTotal Debt 82.89M USD×(1 − Tax Rate for WACC 25.00%)= 2.51%

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

Debt Weight =Total Debt 82.89M USDMarket Cap + Total Debt 280.51M USD + 82.89M USD= 22.81%

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

WACC =Equity Weight 77.19%×Cost of Equity 11.93%+Debt Weight 22.81%×Cost of Debt 2.51%= 9.78%

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 320.29M USD − Total Liabilities 135.80M USD = Book Value Today 184.49M USD

Total Debt 82.89M USD − Cash and Short-Term Investments 17.27M USD = Net Debt Today 65.62M 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.
