ROIC4%NOPAT ÷ invested capital The vendor's simple ROIC, not its tiny-base roic tag; withheld when a negative EBIT flips its sign.

Percentiles computed nightly against 2790 Unknown peers from our ingested fundamentals DB · raw statements for corrected metrics. Direction-adjusted: for "lower is better" ratios (P/E, D/E…) the percentile is flipped so right always means better. The percentile is the stock's rank among sector peers, the number that is scored. The triangle marks where the current value sits in the company's own ten-year annual record, shown for context and never blended into the score. Computed 2026-10-02 · Not investment advice.
