What's working
- Cash exceeds debt by $2.7B, leaving a net cash buffer, a good sign.
- ROIC: Money put back into the business keeps coming back out as profit, a hallmark of a durable moat.
What to watch
- Forward P/E: The price already assumes strong earnings growth that still has to show up.
- Price / sales: Revenue alone can't justify this price; profits need to catch up fast.
