I'd be careful in taking data face-value for companies using IFRS. Specifically, data aggreggators often ignore lease payments, which should be subtracted.
Your data appears right from my source (Finchat); however, the $14.2B is before acquisitions. Looks like LVMH usually spends 800M-1B/year on acquisitions,. Not sure why people like to count internal capital expenditures, but exclude external expenditures like acquisitions-it's internally inconsistent to do so, particularly for companies making regular acquisitions.
Agree valuation looks more reasonable now, but not sure it looks particularly cheap either
The annual report 😬

Ok, thanks. I will pay attention to it, so far I double-checked occasionally and had no issues with tikr.
Nice write-up. Just a heads-up though, LVMH's free cash flow yield is 4.4%. 2024 free cash flow is €10.5 billion and the market cap is €238 billion
Thanks! My data (tikr.com) says it was 2024 €14.2 billion. Where did you get that number from?
