Share count

Diluted shares (TSM-scaled): 55.4M

Method: point-in-time shares outstanding × 1.0000 (latest filer-disclosed diluted ÷ basic ratio). See the diluted-shares methodology for why this count denominates EPV/share and the reverse-DCF equity bridge.

Earning-Power-Value, reverse-DCF, and EV/EBITDA are hidden for this insurer. EPV and the reverse-DCF both anchor on an EBIT margin, but a insurer's "margin" is interest-spread × leverage with non-EBIT investment results mixed in; EV/EBITDA omits deposits and borrowings — the actual funding — so the multiple isn't interpretable. The trailing multiples above (P/E, P/S, P/B, P/FCF) still render, but the right lens here is price-to-tangible-book-value and ROE vs cost of equity — applied manually, outside this page.
