EV/Adj. EBITDA uses the company-stated “Adjusted EBITDA”, extracted from the reconciliation in its SEC filings — the company's own non-GAAP definition, not an XBRL-tagged figure.

Valuation over time computed as of each quarter's filing date

EV/Adj. EBITDA uses the company-stated “Adjusted EBITDA”, extracted from the reconciliation in its SEC filings as it existed at each sample date — the company's own non-GAAP definition, not an XBRL-tagged figure. Each point's tooltip names its TTM or fiscal-year basis.

Revenue Breakdown

Annual revenue as the company disaggregates it in its own XBRL filings. Years a component wasn't reported show a dash.

Share mode is each component's slice of the reported components that year — issuers rarely tag every revenue dollar, so slices need not sum to total revenue.
