look-through-earnings

What problem does it solve?

Helps users judge whether a company is actually generating real economic value instead of relying on accounting profit, EBITDA, or misleading cash-flow narratives.

Core Features & Use Cases

• True earnings analysis: Separates reported profit from owner earnings by accounting for depreciation, amortization, and maintenance capital expenditure.
• EBITDA critique: Explains why EBITDA can overstate performance when real capital replacement is ignored.
• Long-term holding and subsidiary review: Evaluates undistributed earnings in controlled or significant holdings where reported dividends understate economic gain.

Quick Start

Analyze the attached company’s EBITDA, net profit, depreciation, and maintenance capital expenditure, then explain its true owner earnings and whether the reported numbers are misleading.
