Analysis Summary

This looks like a company that knows how to manage its business and return capital to shareholders. The high returns on invested capital and equity, coupled with a seemingly wide moat and a conservative balance sheet, are certainly attractive. While the growth rate is impressive, I'll want to dig a bit deeper to understand its sustainability before making any big decisions.
