Market Cap = Stock_Price * Shares
= 5.66 * 58.26
= 329.74

Excess Cash = Cash - MAX(0; (Current Liabilities - Current Assets + Cash))
= 104.00 - MAX(0; (14.70 - 146.77 + 104.00))
= 104.00

Enterprise Value = Market Cap + Total Debt - Excess Cash
= 329.74 + 0.00 - 104.00
= 225.75

MFI Invested Capital = Total Assets - Goodwill - Intangibles - Current Liabilities + Short Term Debt - Excess Cash
= 241.93 - 0.00 - 0.00 - 14.70 + 0.00 - 104.00
= 123.24

Earnings Yield = Operating Earnings / Enterprise Value
= 91.59 / 225.75
= 0.406 (40.6%)

MFI Return on Capital = Operating Earnings / MFI Invested Capital
= 91.59 / 123.24
= 0.743 (74.3%)
