Revenue grew a steady +14.3% a year over the last 4 fiscal years. Profit per share grew faster (+21.1% a year), so margins are widening as it scales. Analysts expect further profit growth next year: the forward multiple is +21.4% below the trailing one.

The windows point in different directions (+7.5% in 3 months against -4.8% over a year), so the trend has recently turned. The last three months are stronger than the six-month picture, so momentum is building rather than fading.

Net debt is only 0.28x EBITDA, comfortably repayable out of ordinary earnings. Debt equals 42% of equity, so the equity cushion is thick.

Return on equity of 32.3% means the company earns far more on its capital than it costs to fund. About 31% of every euro of revenue survives as net profit, which points to real pricing power. ROIC of 27.5% confirms the returns are not just an effect of leverage.

At 21x trailing earnings the share is priced around market average. The forward P/E of 17.3 is lower, so expected profit growth makes it look cheaper looking ahead. Based on 75% of the inputs — the rest is not published for this instrument.

Annualised volatility of 36.2% means large swings are routine here. The worst fall in the past year was -22.2%, a meaningful but ordinary correction. A beta of 1.19 amplifies market moves in both directions.
