Fundamentals · Valuation

Valuation Strong

Strong Valuation — most metrics are scoring well above the universe median.

91.2 / 100 weighted score

EV/EBITDA ↓

What it measures Capital-structure-agnostic valuation multiple. Useful for comparing levered companies because it adds debt and removes cash from the numerator and uses pre-interest, pre-tax, pre-depreciation earnings in the denominator.

Formula EV = market_cap + total_debt + preferred_equity + minority_interest - cash; EV/EBITDA = EV / ebitda_ttm

Raw value —

Typical range 6x to 25x

Score —

Weight 1.00×

EV/FCF ↓

What it measures Valuation expressed against the cash actually available to all capital providers. Often more honest than EV/EBITDA when capex is meaningful relative to D&A.

Formula EV/FCF = (market_cap + total_debt - cash) / free_cash_flow_ttm

Raw value 9.4892 ratio

Typical range 10x to 40x

Score 100.0

Weight 1.00×

For APA Expensive on cash generation - growth or quality must justify the premium.

EV/Sales ↓

What it measures Adjusts the numerator for debt and cash so heavily-levered or cash-rich companies are comparable. Particularly useful for cross-industry valuation work.

Formula EV/Sales = (market_cap + total_debt - cash) / revenue_ttm

Raw value 1.8925 ratio

Typical range 0.5x to 15x

Score 85.3

Weight 1.00×

For APA Premium revenue multiple even after netting cash - usually high gross-margin businesses.

P/B ↓

What it measures How many dollars of book equity each share represents. Useful for asset-heavy businesses (banks, industrials) where book value approximates liquidation floor; less informative for asset-light franchises whose value is in intangibles.

Formula P/B = market_cap / common_equity

Raw value 2.0994 ratio

Typical range 1x to 15x

Score 92.1

Weight 1.00×

For APA Market values the franchise far above its book equity - common for branded consumer or software businesses.

P/E (TTM) ↓

What it measures Multiple of trailing-twelve-month earnings the market has assigned to the company. Lower means cheaper relative to current earnings power, but a single low P/E can also mean the market expects earnings to fall.

Formula P/E = market_cap / net_income_ttm

Raw value 9.0827 ratio

Typical range 5x to 40x

Score 88.3

Weight 1.00×

For APA Investors are paying a premium relative to current earnings, betting on growth, margin expansion, or perceived quality.

P/S Ratio ↓

What it measures Useful when earnings are negative or noisy (early-stage companies, restructurings). Works best within an industry because gross margin profiles vary wildly.

Formula P/S = market_cap / revenue_ttm

Raw value 1.4358 ratio

Typical range 0.5x to 15x

Score 90.1

Weight 1.00×

For APA Market is paying up for revenue - implicitly betting on margin expansion or revenue growth.

PEG ↓

What it measures Divides P/E by the annualized EPS growth rate (in percent points). Below 1.0 is conventionally read as 'cheap relative to growth.' Sensitive to which growth window you use; can flip sign if earnings are negative.

Formula PEG = (P/E) / eps_growth_3y_pct

Fundamentals · Profitability

Profitability Above average

Above-average Profitability — more positives than negatives in this section.

69.5 / 100 weighted score

Asset Turnover ↑

What it measures Productivity of the asset base. Combined with net margin, this is the DuPont decomposition of ROA: ROA = net_margin * asset_turnover.

Formula Asset Turnover = revenue_ttm / average_total_assets

Raw value 0.5022 ratio

Typical range 0.3x to 2.5x

Score 16.9

Weight 1.00×

For APA Heavy assets needed per dollar of revenue - utilities, telecoms, capital goods.

Cash Conversion ↑

What it measures Sanity-check on earnings quality. Persistently below 1 means working capital or capex is consuming earnings; persistently above 1 is unusual and may flag accounting conservatism or non-cash drags.

Formula Cash Conversion = free_cash_flow_ttm / net_income_ttm

Raw value 1.2406 ratio

Typical range 0.6x to 1.4x

Score 74.1

Weight 1.00×

For APA Earnings quality is good - real cash arriving in step with reported income.

FCF Margin ↑

What it measures End-to-end conversion ratio: of every dollar of revenue, how much falls through to genuine free cash flow available to capital providers? More honest than net margin because it accounts for capex needed to maintain the business.

Formula FCF Margin = (free_cash_flow_ttm / revenue_ttm) * 100

Raw value 19.9439 percent

Typical range 5% to 30%

Score 79.8

Weight 1.00×

For APA Cash flowing through to owners - the hallmark of high-quality compounders.

Free Cash Flow Yield ↑

What it measures FCF the business throws off relative to what you pay for the equity. Treats the equity as a perpetual claim on cash. Cyclicals can swing below zero in a downturn.

Formula FCF Yield = (free_cash_flow_ttm / market_cap) * 100

Raw value 13.8906 percent

Typical range 1% to 8%

Score 100.0

Weight 1.00×

For APA Strong cash income relative to price - attractive when growth doesn't have to do all the work.

Gross Margin ↑

What it measures First-line profitability measure - how much revenue is left after the direct cost of producing it. Stable gross margin suggests pricing power and low input-cost exposure.

Formula Gross Margin = ((revenue_ttm - cogs_ttm) / revenue_ttm) * 100

Raw value —

Typical range 20% to 80%

Score —

Weight 1.00×

Net Margin ↑

What it measures Operating margin minus interest, tax, and below-the-line items. Useful but noisy because tax rate and debt service distort year-to-year comparability.

Formula Net Margin = (net_income_ttm / revenue_ttm) * 100

Raw value 16.0762 percent

Typical range 3% to 30%

Score 64.3

Weight 1.00×

For APA Strong all-in profitability after every expense category.

OCF to Net Income ↑

What it measures Pre-capex version of cash conversion. Numbers persistently below 1 suggest accruals are doing the work; numbers persistently above 1 are a (mild) positive sign.

Formula OCF/NI = operating_cash_flow_ttm / net_income_ttm

Raw value 3.1695 ratio

Typical range 0.8x to 1.6x

Score 100.0

Weight 1.00×

For APA Operating cash flow validates net income.

Operating Margin ↑

What it measures Captures the leverage between revenue and operating profit. Core test of whether a business converts sales into income at the operating level.

Formula Operating Margin = (operating_income_ttm / revenue_ttm) * 100

Raw value 34.6076 percent

Typical range 5% to 35%

Score 98.7

Weight 1.00×

For APA Pricing power and operating leverage - software and platform models commonly run above 30%.

ROIC (Greenblatt ROC) ↑

What it measures Measures how productive the actual operating capital base is, independent of capital structure. The benchmark is the company's cost of capital - sustained ROIC above WACC creates value, below WACC destroys it.

Formula NOPAT = operating_income_ttm * (1 - effective_tax_rate); ROIC = (NOPAT / average_invested_capital) * 100

Raw value —

Typical range 8% to 30%

Score —

Weight 1.00×

Return on Assets ↑

What it measures Capital-efficiency measure that ignores how the assets are financed. Useful for comparing within a sector but biased low for asset-heavy businesses (banks, utilities) and high for asset-light ones.

Formula ROA = (net_income_ttm / average_total_assets) * 100

Raw value 8.0739 percent

Typical range 2% to 20%

Score 46.7

Weight 1.00×

For APA Heavy asset base is needed to generate each dollar of profit - common in capital-intensive industries.

Return on Equity ↑

What it measures Headline profitability metric. High ROE compounds book value if the business can reinvest at the same return. Beware of buybacks artificially inflating ROE by shrinking the denominator.

Formula ROE = (net_income_ttm / average_common_equity) * 100

Raw value 23.5352 percent

Typical range 10% to 40%

Score 45.1

Weight 1.00×

For APA Equity earning power is weak - sometimes due to over-capitalization, sometimes due to genuine underperformance.

Fundamentals · Balance Sheet

Balance Sheet Weak

Weak Balance Sheet — most metrics in this section are scoring below the universe median.

7.6 / 100 weighted score

Cash Ratio ↑

What it measures Strips out receivables and inventory, leaving only cash and equivalents over current liabilities. Stress-tests whether the business can meet obligations even if collections seize up.

Formula Cash Ratio = cash_and_equivalents / current_liabilities

Raw value 0.2007 ratio

Typical range 0.1x to 1.5x

Score 11.2

Weight 1.00×

For APA Liquidity depends on receivables and inventory turning - vulnerable to working-capital shocks.

Current Ratio ↑

What it measures Whether the company can cover near-term obligations from near-term assets. Below 1.0 doesn't mean insolvent (cash flow can cover the gap) but is worth a closer look.

Formula Current Ratio = current_assets / current_liabilities

Raw value 0.8250 ratio

Typical range 1.0x to 3.0x

Score 0.0

Weight 1.00×

For APA Short-term obligations exceed short-term assets - watch cash flow timing.

Debt-to-Equity ↓

What it measures How much the company funds itself with debt vs. equity. Higher leverage amplifies both returns and risks; the appropriate level varies wildly by industry.

Formula Debt-to-Equity = total_debt / common_equity

Raw value 1.7656 ratio

Typical range 0.0x to 2.0x

Score 11.7

Weight 1.00×

For APA Conservative balance sheet - lower bankruptcy risk, but may be under-levered for shareholder returns.

LT Debt-to-Equity ↓

What it measures Strips out short-term operating debt and revolver use to focus on permanent capital structure. Useful when comparing companies that fund working capital differently.

Formula LT D/E = long_term_debt / common_equity

Raw value —

Typical range 0.0x to 1.5x

Fundamentals · Income

Income Above average

Above-average Income — more positives than negatives in this section.

57.6 / 100 weighted score

Dividend Yield ↑

What it measures Direct income from holding the share. Stable dividend yield often signals capital discipline; abnormally high yield can be a warning that the dividend isn't covered by FCF and may be cut.

Formula Dividend Yield = (dividends_per_share_ttm / price) * 100

Raw value 2.7594 percent

Typical range 0% to 8%

Score 46.0

Weight 1.00×

For APA Most of the return must come from price appreciation rather than income.

Earnings Yield ↑

What it measures Lets you compare equity earning power directly to bond yields. A 6% earnings yield is the equity-side analog to a 6% coupon, with the difference being earnings can grow (or contract).

Formula Earnings Yield = (net_income_ttm / market_cap) * 100

Raw value 11.0099 percent

Typical range 2% to 15%

Score 69.3

Weight 1.00×

For APA Earnings stream is large relative to price - attractive when treasury yields are low.

Fundamentals · Composite

Composite Above average

Above-average Composite — more positives than negatives in this section.

66.7 / 100 weighted score

Altman Z-Score ↑

What it measures Five-factor distress signal originally calibrated for US public manufacturers. Above 3.0 is the conventional 'safe' zone, 1.8-3.0 is the grey zone, below 1.8 historically associates with elevated bankruptcy risk.

Formula Z = 1.2X1 + 1.4X2 + 3.3X3 + 0.6X4 + 1.0X5; X1=working_capital/total_assets, X2=retained_earnings/total_assets, X3=ebit/total_assets, X4=market_cap/total_liabilities, X5=revenue/total_assets

Raw value —

Typical range 1.0 to 10.0+

Piotroski F-Score ↑

What it measures Joseph Piotroski's score for distinguishing winners from losers among low-P/B stocks. Each of 9 questions answers 0 or 1; the more 'yes' answers, the higher quality the recent year-over-year improvements.

Formula Sum of 9 binary indicators across profitability (ROA>0, CFO>0, ROA improving, CFO>NI), leverage (LT debt/assets falling, current ratio rising, no share issuance), and operating efficiency (gross margin rising, asset turnover rising)

Raw value 3.0000 score_0_9

Typical range 0 to 9

Score 33.3

Weight 1.00×

For APA Fundamentals deteriorating across the board - turnaround story or value trap.

Sloan Ratio ↓

What it measures Richard Sloan's accruals-quality measure. Persistent positive accruals (NI exceeds OCF) tend to mean-revert, often via earnings disappointments. Magnitude over ~10% in either direction warrants closer accounting review.

Formula Sloan = (net_income_ttm - operating_cash_flow_ttm) / average_total_assets

Raw value -0.1752 ratio

Typical range -0.10 to +0.10

Score 100.0

Weight 1.00×

For APA Net income outpacing cash by an unusual amount - earnings quality may be deteriorating.
