Is the business good?
The checks split: earnings fully cash-backed (1.8×) and margins widening, but returns that lean on debt.
Operating profit is fully backed by cash.
Profits are tracking sales roughly one-for-one, limited operating leverage either way.
Leverage-amplified, a high assets-to-equity ratio does much of the work. ROE 12% = margin × turnover × leverage.
Unless marked, from derived.
