Solve the discounted cash flow backwards, then stress-test the assumptions.
Average free cash flow across the last 2 positive fiscal years (FY2023, FY2024). Smooths the cycle. Stock compensation is NOT charged — it is added back inside operating cash flow.
To be worth $3.88 today, the market must believe free cash flow compounds 24.4%/yr for a decade (off $1.2M on the 3-yr avg basis).
On the basis ($1.1M) the requirement is 25.7%/yr. Shares issued to employees are added back in operating cash flow, so this basis treats them as free.
Default is the published 10.0% — this company's own cost of capital could not be computed.
2-stage DCF · 0.02B shares (market data) · net debt -$172K
mean -8.3% · volatility σ 71% · implied rate exceeded in 1/3 yrs
Central path = implied 24.4%/yr growth; shaded band = ±1σ (71%) of this company's historical FCF volatility, widening with time. The wider the band, the less certain the growth.
Reverse DCF: rather than guessing a fair value, we solve for the growth the current price implies, then you stress-test the assumptions. Enterprise value of the FCF stream, less net debt, ÷ shares. Educational — not a recommendation.
Total return (dividends reinvested) vs the market, from quarter-end prices.
Above 0 = ahead of the S&P 500 since the window start; below 0 = behind. Rising means it's pulling ahead.
How far the stock fell below its prior peak. Deeper, longer drawdowns = a rougher ride to the same return.
Quarter-end, dividend-adjusted (total return). Beta & volatility from quarterly returns (annualized). Benchmark is the S&P 500 (SPY total return). Annual returns compound the quarters ending in each calendar year; the first and last years in a window may be partial. Past performance doesn't predict future results.
What the company returns to shareholders — and whether it's covered by cash.
No dividend to cover. Last year: $0 dividends + $0 buybacks = $0 returned.
Yields use the latest fiscal-year dividends/buybacks over current market cap. Dividends and buybacks from the SEC cash-flow statement; payout coverage vs net income and free cash flow. Educational — not a recommendation.
How management deployed cash over 10 years — and what it earned on reinvestment.
A balanced mix of reinvestment and shareholder returns.
Reinvestment has been productive — operating income grew well per dollar put in. Current ROIC on all capital: -331%. Rough measure (includes maintenance capex).
Cash uses aggregated from the SEC cash-flow statement over 10 fiscal years. "Return on reinvestment" is a rough proxy — operating-income change ÷ cumulative CapEx + M&A — and includes maintenance capex. Educational — not a recommendation.

Dot = today · shaded = middle 50% · line = median. Lower percentile = cheaper vs its own 14-yr history.
Is the profit real, and how strong is the balance sheet?
FY2025 · every deduction from revenue to net income
DuPont — the three levers
ROE -387% against ROIC -331% — -56% of the return on equity comes from leverage and buybacks rather than from the operating business.
Equity is the year-end figure. On average equity over the two year-ends, ROE is -358.5% — the two diverge when buybacks or issuance move equity during the year.

Latest year: profit growth vs revenue growth
Operating leverage needs meaningful revenue change.

The metrics that matter, over time
A 30-second read on QXL: price, valuation and headline fundamentals from SEC filings. The four questions at the top of the page are where the judgements live.
How much the company owes, how it's trended, and how comfortably it's serviced.
Cash of $1.8M is below the $6.9M due within a year — relies on refinancing or operating cash flow. Scheduled principal only (excludes interest & revolver draws). As of 2023-12-31 (10-K).
Green ≤ 1.5× · amber ≤ 3× · red > 3× (leverage relative to cash earnings).
Interest expense isn't separately reported — often netted into “other income (expense), net.”
Cash of $1.0M fully covers short-term debt of $260K.
Mostly long-term debt (balance-sheet current vs non-current split). See the maturity ladder above for the year-by-year repayment schedule.
Debt, cash, interest and equity from the SEC balance sheet & income statement. Effective rate = interest ÷ average debt. Maturity ladder from the SEC long-term-debt repayment schedule. Educational — not a recommendation.
Cash conversion and accruals. The full answer — share-based compensation, the cash conversion waterfall, working-capital trend — is still being built, so this block states what it measures rather than issuing a verdict.
One year is not a trend. The spec asks for a 3- and 5-year average of FCF/net income precisely because a single year turns on working-capital timing, and that arrives with the full Q2 block.
