Enterprise value (EV) is a measure of the value of a company regardless of its financing. It is calculated as follows:
EV = market capitalization - cash + debt.

Dividing enterprise value by turnover provides an important key figure for assessing the valuation of fast-growing but still loss-making technology companies.

EV / Sales current refers to the enterprise value at the current point in time. The current market capitalization and the values for cash, debt and sales from the last quarterly figures are used for this purpose.

The gross margin is the percentage of sales that remains with the company after deducting direct production costs.
Gross margin (%) = (sales - direct costs) / sales

The "Rule of 40" is a simple key figure for assessing the efficiency of a company's growth and thus the quality of its business model.

The key figure is calculated as the sum of sales growth, sales growth and free cash flow margin. The higher the value, the better the company's business model. Values above 40 are considered attractive.

The PEG is one of the most important key figures for assessing growth stocks that are already profitable. It calculates the ratio of P/E (i.e. P/E ratio) and EBIT growth. If this ratio is between 0 and 1, this indicates an undervaluation. The PEG can only be meaningfully calculated for companies that are already sustainably profitable.

The gearing ratio is calculated by putting the sum of current and non-current liabilities in relation to equity. The most recent quarterly figures are used for the calculation.
