Asset-light

Physical assets are 16.4% of total assets, a light footprint. Capex is 1.02x 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 93.1%, above an 8% cost-of-capital hurdle.

Fixed-asset turnover is 12.47x. Compare it with other names in the same basket.
