Can revenue growth offset weak profitability?
FundamentalsFor 2025, reported in USD, revenue was about USD 17.3 billion, alongside EBIT of roughly USD 445 million and net income of about USD 44 million. Over the same period, the business posted a 10.1% year-over-year revenue increase, while trailing margins were 26.67% gross, 3.22% operating, and 0.32% net.
Cash on hand ended the year at about USD 6.9 billion against USD 9.1 billion of total debt. With depreciation and amortization at roughly USD 145 million and capital spending near USD 150 million, the cash flow proxy was around USD 347 million.
Are shares priced beyond fair value range?
DCF / MultiplesAt USD 73.09, the shares trade above the DCF range that runs from about USD 31.87 in a weaker scenario through USD 47.77 centrally to USD 67.66 in a stronger outcome. In that pricing context, the headline multiples include 334.86x trailing P/E and 26.25x EV/EBITDA.
Thin Margins Limit Support
TakeawayThe price asks for durability that the current margins don’t show. The case works best if revenue growth stays repeatable. It also needs meaningfully better operating and net profitability. If margins stay this thin, the valuation has little support.
