The P/E excluding one-off items is only shown where the special items are documented in the accounts (our own raw data or SEC filings). If one side lacks it, the reported P/E stays scored.

Even match: 7 to 7 metric wins.

Group holding company: EQTL3 (67 %) consolidates subsidiaries in full but owns only the stated share. Revenue, EBITDA and margin ratios are therefore restated for its own shareholders; earnings per share, P/E and return on equity already were.

n/a = not meaningfully computable, for example with negative equity.
