Earnings are zero or negative, so a price to earnings multiple is not meaningful. A negative P/E is not a cheap company and a large positive one from a near-zero denominator is not an expensive one.

The business, and the score behind its five axes

The reading, in brief

Is it good

Return on invested capital was 5.2% in FY2026, in the band labelled "Likely below the cost of capital" (below 8.0%), on lines anchored on Damodaran's cost-of-capital data, suggesting returns below the usual cost of the capital employed.

Today, against the Consumer Cyclical sector (222 companies), 5.2% sits at the 33rd percentile; the middle half of that group runs from 3.6% to 14.8%.

Is it safe

Net debt to EBITDA was 10.42x in FY2026, in the band labelled "High, covenant territory" (4.00x and above), on lines set by credit-analyst convention, suggesting debt in the range lenders write covenants around.

No peer distribution is published for net debt to EBITDA today; the year-by-year comparison uses the filed annual figures.

Next step

What to do with what you have read.

A thesis is your reason for owning it, in your words, with the figures that must stay true. Checking those figures every night against the newest filed accounts, and telling you once when one breaks, is what the subscription adds.

More on this company

What this cannot tell you

  • 11 figures could not be read on this company, among them Debt to Equity, P/B Ratio, P/E Ratio. Each blank in the table above names the rest, with its reason. 6 named tests come back incomplete because of them, which is neither met nor missed.
  • We hold 6 filed fiscal years rather than 10, so the run above is shorter than a full decade and is counted as what it is.

And the one that is true of all of it: This is what the numbers say today. It cannot tell you the day one of them stops being true. Nothing here can, because the reasons are not written down.

Running this once is arithmetic on public documents and you are welcome to it. Writing down why you own each company, in your own words and with the numbers that have to stay true for it to hold, and then having those numbers re-checked every night against the newest filed accounts, and against the latest close where a rule watches a price, is Professional, the plan a new account starts on for 30 days, one trial per person. It writes to you the day one breaks, and stays quiet when nothing does. The check runs every night at 23:30 UTC. A filing is picked up the night after it is published.

No card. 30 free days, and nothing is charged unless you choose a plan.
