- **Price / sales: 2.4×**. Each dollar of revenue is priced at 2.4×.
- **Price / book: 5.4×**. The shares trade at 5.4× book value; most of the value is in earnings power and intangibles rather than the balance sheet.
- **Free-cash-flow yield: 1.1%** (5-yr avg 3.0%). Free cash flow equals 1.1% of the market value, below its five-year average of 3.0%, so the shares are pricier on cash than usual.
