How the number is built. Four grades for balance sheet, profitability, cash flow and growth, each from 0 to 5. More points is better, 20 is the maximum. The four grades are weighted equally and added; there is no weighting key and no markdown from the weakest grade. If a grade is missing because data is missing, it is not estimated: the total is then withheld and the page names what is missing. The share valuation does not enter the sum; it sits alongside as a range.
All values from audited annual reports filed with the US regulator SEC. No value is estimated, none smoothed.

Each grade is the rounded mean of two or three key figures, each placed on a five-step scale. Open the derivation under a grade to see, for every figure, the measured value, the step it reached and what the next step would have required.

Price divided by basis gives the multiple. Every row can be recomputed; if a row does not add up, this page is not built at all.
Rank 8 of 11 in the industry. Median of total points in this industry: 12.0 of 20, across 11 graded companies. The grades are absolute and are not normalised to the sector: in a weak industry a weak grade stays weak.
The neighbours follow from the ranking alone, not from a judgement. More total points does not mean a company is the better investment, only that more quality rules are met. It says nothing about the price.
Every figure comes from the annual report of that year and has not been revised afterwards. Amounts in USD.
