FCFF base normalized by replacing latest capex with the company's trailing median capex-to-revenue ratio.

Historical FCFF CAGR and the default growth rates are taken from the raw historical series. The valuation base is normalized for the current-period DCF.
Reported total debt includes capitalised leases (~11% of the total). They are excluded from net debt and from the WACC weights because rent is already charged inside operating income. The Net Debt shown here is therefore lower than the balance-sheet figure elsewhere on this page.
Free cash flow each value needs
Free cash flow today $692M. The price needs $805M by 2036. Base case: $1.3B. At its recent pace: $1.5B. Bear to Bull: $657M to $3.6B.

Price vs Fundamentals
Why The Stock Is Moving
What changed
The stock rose 22.5% over the last year. Revenue grew 6.65% in FY2026 versus FY2025. Operating margin moved from 32.23% to 28.27% (FY2026 versus FY2025). Free cash flow grew 14.58% in FY2026 versus FY2025.
What the market seems to be pricing
The stock has moved higher against modestly improving underlying metrics. The operating data does not yet tell a clear story — the move may reflect sentiment, sector rotation, or macro factors rather than company-specific earnings power.
What would invalidate this read
Operating margin currently stands at 28.27%. A decisive move in revenue — currently up 6.65% — would be the clearest signal to resolve the ambiguity.
