    AdjustedReports in EUR, trades in GBp. Modelled in EUR, converted at the end.
    AdjustedCapital expenditure runs at 11.8% of revenue against depreciation of 7.9%. A perpetuity has to be a steady state, so the terminal year uses maintenance capex at depreciation and then charges the reinvestment terminal growth requires (g/ROIC of NOPAT). The bridge is shown under Terminal Value.

    Terminal Value

    Perpetuity growth is intrinsic. The exit multiple defaults to the company's current EV/EBITDA, so it answers a different question - what the shares are worth if today's rating holds and EBITDA grows as forecast.
