2.5 Valuation & Cash Flow

Valuation basis: The operating-company framework starts with reported EBIT, taxes, non-cash charges, capital expenditure and working-capital movement to derive unlevered free cash flow. It is a current-input research view, not an intrinsic-value target price because a sourced forecast and peer-beta workstream are still required.
