Valuation

P/E (ttm)Price ÷ TTM diluted EPS. Net income carries everything below the operating line, including one-off gains. Negative when the trailing year lost money.: 5.9×2016-12 -5.872026-10 5.75-198.0% over the window
P/OI (ttm)Price ÷ TTM operating income. Excludes the below-the-line items that make P/E jump — mark-to-market gains, settlements, tax true-ups.: 5.1×2016-12 -7.302026-10 5.14-170.4% over the window

P/S (ttm)Market cap ÷ TTM revenue.: 1.3×2016-12 0.552026-10 1.30+137.8% over the window
P/B (mrq)Market cap ÷ stockholders' equity at the most recent quarter end.: 2.5×2016-12 0.802026-10 2.47+211.0% over the window
P/FCF (ttm)Market cap ÷ TTM free cash flow (operating cash flow − capex).: 22.9×2016-12 -134.352026-10 22.94-117.1% over the window
EV/EBITDA (fy): 4.3×
EV/Sales (ttm): 1.2×
FCF yield (ttm)TTM free cash flow ÷ market cap — the inverse of P/FCF.: 4.36%2016-09 -0.7%2026-06 3.3%-546.0% over the window
Buyback yield (realized, 1y)1 − shares_at(2026-06-30) ÷ shares_at(2025-06-30) = 1 − 99.0M ÷ 93.3M. Point-in-time share counts from the company's own SEC filings (the same count at both ends), published only when the cash flow statement shows repurchases inside that window. A falling price can't inflate it; negative means net dilution.: -6.06%
Shareholder yield (realized, 1y)Buyback leg + dividend leg: shares retired over the year (-6.06%) + dividends paid over that year ($0) ÷ market_cap_at(2025-06-30) ($1.7B). Both legs are measured against the start of the window, so a payout can't shrink its own denominator.: -6.06%
Buyback yield (cash, ttm)Buybacks net of issuance over the trailing twelve months ($0) ÷ today's market cap ($3.5B). Dollars SPENT over what the company is worth NOW — a stock that fell after buying reads high.: 0.00%2016-09 0.0%2026-06 0.0%
Shareholder yield (cash, ttm)(TTM buybacks net of issuance $0 + TTM dividends $0) ÷ today's market cap ($3.5B). Same caveat as the cash buyback yield.: 0.00%2016-09 0.0%2026-06 0.0%
