The Ethical Read
Why It Clears, in Plain English
Corning clears all five screens. Its business is in a permissible area, its interest-bearing debt is about 30%, inside the ~33% line, and almost none of its income is interest, so it passes.

The Business, in Plain Words
Why it stands out
A 18%-growth business trading at just 28.5x forward earnings, with a moderate competitive moat. That is a 15% discount to our $148.82 fair value: the market is pricing it cautiously while the fundamentals argue otherwise. 17 analysts rate it Strong Buy with a $180.00 average target, about 43% above the screened price.
Another profit measure, before interest, tax and non-cash costs: EBITDA.
