FCFF base normalized by replacing latest capex with the company's trailing median capex-to-revenue ratio.
Working capital change smoothed: single-period ΔOWC exceeded ±5% of revenue and was capped to reduce timing noise.
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.
Cost of debt defaulted to 4.5% — unable to derive from interest/debt.
Reported total debt includes capitalised leases (~32% 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 $276M. The price needs $1.6B by 2036. Base case: $289M. At its recent pace: $214M. Bear to Bull: $125M to $693M.

Price vs Fundamentals
Why The Stock Is Moving
Note: The most recent financial data is over 3 months old. Metrics shown may not reflect the latest reporting period.
What changed
The stock fell 1.57% over the last year. Revenue grew 6.81% over the trailing twelve months. Operating margin moved from 11.31% to 11.4%. Free cash flow grew 47.73% over the trailing twelve months.
What the market seems to be pricing
The stock has moved lower 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 11.4%. A decisive move in revenue — currently up 6.81% — would be the clearest signal to resolve the ambiguity.
