The reading, in brief

Is it cheap

Price to earnings is 17.43x at the close of 2026-10-15 on FY2025 figures; the lines are 15.00x (Graham's defensive ceiling) and, by market convention, 10.00x, 25.00x and 40.00x, and this sits between 15.00x and 25.00x.

Today, against the Internet Content & Information industry (33 companies), 17.43x sits at the 53rd percentile; the middle half of that group runs from 5.74x to 36.60x.

Is it good

Return on invested capital was 25.5% in FY2025, in the band labelled "Exceptional" (20.0% and above), on lines anchored on Damodaran's cost-of-capital data, suggesting returns on the capital in the business well above the usual cost of that capital.

Today, against the Communication Services sector (85 companies), 25.5% sits at the 94th percentile; the middle half of that group runs from -2.0% to 8.8%.

Is it safe

Interest coverage was 5.91x in FY2025, in the band labelled "Investment grade" (3.00x to 6.00x), on lines anchored on Damodaran's interest-coverage table.

The named tests

Of 30 tests value investors published: 3 met, 17 not met, 10 we could not complete. Counts, never a score: a single figure would have to decide that meeting one investor’s criteria and meeting another’s are worth the same.

A test with a figure we could not read is incomplete, never met and never failed.
Figures we could not read(6)
  • Debt to Equity: Filed shareholders equity is zero or below, so debt measured against it is not a measurement (n/m).
  • P/B Ratio: Book equity is zero or negative, so a ratio measured against it (debt to equity, price to book) is not a measurement, and we will not show a number.
  • Return on Equity: Book equity is zero or negative. Return on equity computed over it flips sign and can read as a strong positive on a loss-making company, so we will not show a number.
  • Price To Graham: We do not hold this figure for this company, so there is nothing to show.
  • Dividend Streak: The stored figure is a zero that can stand for data we do not hold, so this test is not measured.
  • Price Tangible Book: Book equity is zero or negative, so a ratio measured against it (debt to equity, price to book) is not a measurement, and we will not show a number.

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

  • 6 figures could not be read on this company, among them Debt to Equity, P/B Ratio, Return on Equity. Each blank in the table above names the rest, with its reason. 10 named tests come back incomplete because of them, which is neither met nor missed.

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.
