The four quality checks

Every company faces the same four checks. Tap the ? on any term to learn what it means.

01

Is the company drowning in loans?

We check how much the company has borrowed versus its own money. Too much debt makes a business fragile when times get tough.

Aligned

The company keeps its borrowing under control. That's a sign of a sturdy balance sheet.

Aligned

It turns its money into healthy profits year after year. A hallmark of a quality business.

ROE 31.3%goal > 15% (3y avg)

Divergent

Professional investors have been reducing their stake recently.
