Quality Factors

The next grid in the scorecard shows the same information for the key quality factors. The first 2 columns show the ratio and the value for the company. The next 4 columns show an easy comparison to all stocks and its peers in its sector, industry group and industry. For each column it displays:

• The percentile to which the company belongs. (Percentile 1 = the best group, percentile 100 = the worst group.) The values are shown on a meter which will also change color depending on its value. (less than 33 = green, greater than 66 = red)
• The median value for the specific ratio in the group.

In the screenshot above you can see that the company has a ROIC of 16.5%, much higher than the median ROIC of 3.6% for all stocks in the selected universe. When we compare it to its peers in the industry, it's actually below average as the median ROIC is 20.5%. So in comparison to its peers, it's not that high quality.

New! The quality factors are now fully dynamic and calculated on a filtered stock universe using the filters specified in the Filter Menu. The filters taken into account are: countries, markets, industries, market cap, trading value, results age and currency.
