Hi, it would be minimal. But it reflects on valuations in the sector. I added last month. Do your own due diligence of course. I recommend reading the december shareholder letter.

Do you know at what prices they're acquiring other companies at? The next step would be to figure out whether they do any write-downs at the time of acquisition. EV/EBIT 14x is okay but maybe fair if organic growth is low single digits.

Good question. Its not in the press releases but could be somewhere or calculated.

I need to get better on this part of the analyses.

I think the EBIT numbers are maybe not fully accurate. difficult to value.

Bear market plus a scandal. That‘s tricky. But worth monitoring. Thanks for sharing.

Welcome Benwin, apparently the scandal is not impacting them directly, but we will know more in one year for sure.
