Tangible book and profitability anchor a bank, not enterprise value.
Deposits and cash-like balances distort enterprise value for banks, so this section reads equity value, tangible book and profitability instead.

If you believe PYPL can sustain its 27.8% ROIC and reaccelerate growth without a deterioration in balance sheet quality, then the stock could be attractive on a relative value basis because it trades far below MSCI on P/E and P/S; otherwise, the discount likely reflects a real quality gap rather than an obvious mispricing.
PYPL trades at 7.6x P/E and 1.1x P/S versus MSCI at 39.2x P/E and 14.3x P/S, so the headline discount is very large. However, PYPL's lower growth and weaker profitability help justify some of that gap, while the current share price of $41.29 sits near the bottom of its historical band and far below MSCI-implied value range.
