- **Price / sales: 7.8×**. Each dollar of revenue is priced at 7.8×.
- **Free-cash-flow yield: 3.6%** (5-yr avg 8.0%). Free cash flow equals 3.6% of the market value, below its five-year average of 8.0%, so the shares are pricier on cash than usual.
- **Earnings yield: 2.0%**. The inverse of the P/E: 2.0% of the price is earned each year.

## Profitability
- **Operating margin: 26.2%**. 26.2% of revenue is left after running the business, an exceptional level.
- **Net margin: 6.9%**. 6.9% of each dollar of sales reaches the bottom line.
- **Return on equity: -129.2%**. Return on equity is negative because earnings are negative.

- **EPS growth (1 yr): -1.3%** (3-yr -29.1%/yr, 5-yr -2.8%/yr). Earnings per share fell 1.3%, slower than revenue, so margins compressed.
