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.: 16.8×2017-03 6.252026-10 16.55+164.7% over the window

P/FCF (ttm)Market cap ÷ TTM free cash flow (operating cash flow − capex).: 18.6×2017-03 -45.872026-10 18.57-140.5% over the window

FCF yield (ttm)TTM free cash flow ÷ market cap — the inverse of P/FCF.: 5.39%2016-12 -2.2%2026-06 5.7%-362.7% over the window
Buyback yield (realized, 1y)1 − shares_at(2026-06-30) ÷ shares_at(2025-06-30) = 1 − 137.7M ÷ 147.4M. 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.: 6.53%
Shareholder yield (realized, 1y)Realized buyback yield + dividends paid over the same year ÷ the market cap at the start of that year — cash received per dollar an owner actually held. Both figures come from the company's own SEC filings.: 6.53%
Buyback yield (cash, ttm)Buybacks net of issuance over the trailing twelve months ($329.4M) ÷ today's market cap ($5.3B). Dollars SPENT over what the company is worth NOW — a stock that fell after buying reads high.: 6.19%2016-12 0.0%2026-06 6.6%
Shareholder yield (cash, ttm)(TTM buybacks net of issuance $329.4M + TTM dividends $0) ÷ today's market cap ($5.3B). Same caveat as the cash buyback yield.: 6.19%2016-12 0.0%2026-06 6.6%
