RACEFerrari N.V.
Is the business good?
A genuinely good business: earnings fully cash-backed (1.4×) and elite returns on assets.
Operating profit is fully backed by cash. Conversion is improving vs a year ago.
Positive operating leverage, operating profit is growing faster than sales, so margins widen as the business scales.
High-quality, exceptional returns on the assets themselves, not leverage. ROE 41% = margin × turnover × leverage.
Unless marked, from derived.
Where this answer is blind. The F-score rewards improvement, so an already-elite company can score mid-pack.
