✦ Quant Financial Health how this is computed

Fair

Altman Z-Score is 2.98, in the 1.8-3.0 "grey zone".
Most reliable for industrial/manufacturing companies; less meaningful for banks, insurers and other financials.

Revenue annual, last 8 years

Latest year +3.49% YoY

Margins

Gross margin: 41.96%
Operating margin: 20.02%
Net margin: 12.89%

Key ratios & quality

Enterprise value: 79.75B
PEG ratio: 2.38
Altman Z-Score: 2.98

PEG uses trailing P/E against the 3-year net income growth rate (12.86%/yr) since forward earnings estimates aren't available here, so this is not a "forward PEG." Altman Z-Score below ~1.8 suggests financial distress risk, above ~3.0 suggests low risk; the model is most reliable for industrial/manufacturing companies and less meaningful for banks and other financial firms.
