- **Price / book: 2.1×**. The shares trade at 2.1× book value; book value is a meaningful part of the valuation.

- **Free-cash-flow yield: 17.7%** (5-yr avg -19.7%). Free cash flow equals 17.7% of the market value, above its five-year average of -19.7%, so the shares are cheaper on cash than they have usually been. Above 5% is generally attractive.
