## Asset intensity and goodwill

Ratios are derived from reported values. Goodwill is used only when separately reported, never inferred from combined intangible assets.

| Metric | Value | Sources |
| --- | ---: | ---: |

| Fixed assets ÷ total assets | 35.6% | S100YIWC |
| Goodwill ÷ parent equity | — | —, S100YIWC |

### Cash quality

Net cash = cash − interest-bearing debt. Net debt ratio = (interest-bearing debt − cash) ÷ positive operating cash flow. Omit when debt components are incomplete; other ratios are derived from reported figures.

| Metric | Value |
| --- | ---: |
| Cash ratio (cash ÷ total assets) | 20.4% |
| Cash ÷ revenue | 20.2% |
| Net cash (cash − interest-bearing debt) | — |

| Shareholder payments — dividends / FCF | 6.7% |
| CapEx intensity (capex ÷ revenue) | 4.6% |
| Investing CF relative to operating CF | 30.0% |

## ROA and ROE

ROE is decomposed into net margin × asset turnover × financial leverage. Leverage can raise ROE, so the ratio alone does not assess a company's condition. Ending balances are used without a prior year; total equity approximates parent equity when unavailable.
