Heavy & maintained

Physical assets are 60.9% of total assets, a heavy footprint. Capex is 2.25x 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. ROIC is 16.8%, above an 8% cost-of-capital hurdle.

Fixed-asset turnover is 1.38x. Compare it with other names in the same basket.
