What the Numbers Say It Is Worth
The Fair Value Range
Fair value under review. There is no analyst estimate to cross-check it; our model's value is 1.48x the price, above our 1.35x limit. We show no fair value, margin of safety or value read built on it until the review clears.
Another profit measure, before interest, tax and non-cash costs: EBITDA.
The risks · The things to watch: it's a small-cap, so the share price can swing harder than the market; its business and earnings are exposed to Canada and to currency swings.
