History
How the company evolved, year by year. Revenue and debt come from the annual reports — for most companies, the 10-K filings with the SEC since 2009; dividends from the payments themselves.
The bars are a balance on the closing date; the lines are what happened during the year. Revenue above equity is ordinary, not an anomaly — it means the company turns its capital over more than once a year.

Fair price, seven ways
Seven formulas applied to what the company reported. None of them predicts a price — each answers what the stock would be worth if its assumption held. The assumption is printed next to every number, because it is the assumption that produces the result.
Earnings
$5.12
Square root of 22.5 × earnings × book value — the two ceilings Graham proposed. Blind to intangibles, so it undervalues software and brands.
Earnings
—
This formula has no meaning here — usually a loss, negative cash flow, or a missing input.
Earnings
$3.77
Median P/E of 15.7 among peers in the sector.
Earnings
$3.85
Median P/E of 16.0 across the years on record for this company itself. Answers whether it is cheap against its own past, which a whole sector trading low cannot flatter.
Cash flow
$2.95
Cash flow growing 5.0% a year for 10 years, discounted at 10%, then 2.5% forever.
Operating
—
This formula has no meaning here — usually a loss, negative cash flow, or a missing input.
