Fiscal year ended 2026-08-04Valuation, from the filing
| Public float | $1.00B | Market value of stock held by non-affiliates, as stated on the cover page for 2025-08-05 |
|---|---|---|
| Float per share | $28.79 | Float divided by shares outstanding in the same filing. A floor under the share price on that date, not the price itself. |
| Float / revenue | 0.5× | A lower bound on the multiple, because affiliate holdings are excluded. |
| Float / equity | 11.0× | A lower bound on the multiple, because affiliate holdings are excluded. |
Every figure here is drawn from the 10-K cover page and the statements behind it, so each one traces to a filing. Public float counts only stock held by non-affiliates, which makes these floors rather than estimates: a high multiple is conclusive, a low one may mean cheap or may mean closely held. The float was measured on 2025-08-05, not today, and each multiple below it uses the figures for the fiscal year ending 2026-02-03 — the year that filing covered.
