Not ranked: 1 with a value above 100× (too small a base to compare), 1 with not a meaningful number. 2 companies whose data behind this number has a caveat are left out until it is checked.

A ranking of numbers, not a recommendation. A low multiple can be a bargain or a business in trouble: open the company to see which.
