What's working
- Forward P/E: Investors aren't pricing in much earnings growth, so there's room to be pleasantly surprised.
- ROE: Shareholder capital is compounding at a rate worth paying attention to.
What to watch
- Debt exceeds cash by $20.6B, increasing balance-sheet pressure, a warning sign.
- Price / FCF: Cash generation hasn't caught up to the price tag yet.
