Asset-light

Physical assets are 3.1% of total assets, a light footprint. Capex is 58.48x depreciation and free cash flow yield is still positive, which fits a physical base that is being replaced or expanded without consuming all of its cash. EBITDA after capex covers debt service by 0.62x, which is below 1.

Real estate revenue is mostly rent, so fixed-asset turnover often sits around 0.05x to 0.15x. This name is at 131.28x.

  • Receivables are larger than the physical asset base, so a finance or credit book may sit outside the physical ratio and inside the debt used for coverage.
  • Principal due is short-term debt, the amount reported as due within a year.
