No target price is issued: the company falls outside the profile this method looks for.
Financial comments6
Interest coverage below 4×.
The share count grows: net dilution.
Stagnation: 3-year earnings CAGR at or below zero. It is scored, not cut: the penalty is charged by the Impairment modifier, where it is continuous and capped.
ROIC below the required return: growth destroys value.
High stock-based compensation relative to FCF.
Impairment of earnings: 47 % of the window, weighted by recency → 5.7 points. It is the only place in the model where a bad year subtracts.
Calculation comments2
An anomalous year is out of the estimators; it still counts in the counters and hard cuts.
The derivado consensus candidate was rejected (base_reconstruida) and is not used.
