Asset-light

Physical assets are 29.9% of total assets, a light footprint. Capex is 0.76x depreciation while free cash flow yield is positive, which can mean an aging base that is still throwing off cash. ROIC is 7.5%, below an 8% cost-of-capital hurdle.

Technology and communication names are often asset-light, with fixed-asset turnover above 5x. This name is at 0.82x.
