What Interface does

Designs and manufactures modular carpet tile and resilient flooring with a focus on sustainability and low-carbon materials.

Sells mainly to commercial buyers, where architects and designers specify floors for office, school and healthcare projects, so orders follow refurbishment and construction budgets rather than home buyers. It bought the German rubber-flooring maker nora in 2018, extending into healthcare and education floors.

How these numbers are made. Returns are close-to-close in local currency. Revenue growth and margins are trailing twelve months. Req g is the revenue growth that today's enterprise value requires for seven years at the company's own cost of capital; Delivered g is what it actually grew; the gap is the hurdle (honest precision about ±8 points, so read the ranking more than the decimal). No fair values, price targets or analyst ratings are shown, by design. Method and validation.
