Rating Metrics Explained
DCF Score (Discounted Cash Flow)

Measures the intrinsic value of the stock based on projected future cash flows. A higher score indicates the stock is undervalued relative to its DCF valuation.

ROE Score (Return on Equity)

Evaluates how efficiently a company generates profit from shareholders' equity. Higher ROE indicates better profitability and management effectiveness.

ROA Score (Return on Assets)

Measures how efficiently a company uses its assets to generate profit. A higher ROA means better asset utilization and operational efficiency.

D/E Score (Debt-to-Equity)

Assesses the company's financial leverage and risk. Lower debt-to-equity ratios indicate less financial risk and better balance sheet health.

P/E Score (Price-to-Earnings)

Compares stock price to earnings per share. A lower P/E ratio may indicate the stock is undervalued, while a higher ratio could suggest overvaluation or growth expectations.

P/B Score (Price-to-Book)

Compares market price to book value per share. Lower P/B ratios may indicate undervaluation relative to the company's net asset value.

Rating Recommendations:

Each metric is scored on a scale of 1-5, where the scores are determined by comparing the company's performance against industry benchmarks and historical data:

  • Strong Buy (5/5): Excellent score - strong positive indicator
    • The metric significantly outperforms industry averages (top 20% of companies)
    • Indicates exceptional financial health or attractive valuation in that category
  • Buy (4/5): Good score - positive indicator
    • Above-average performance (top 40% of companies)
    • Shows strong fundamentals with room for improvement
  • Neutral (3/5): Average score - neutral indicator
    • Performance in line with industry median (middle 20%)
    • Neither significantly positive nor negative signal
  • Sell (2/5): Below average - negative indicator
    • Below-average performance (bottom 40% of companies)
    • Suggests weakness in this particular metric
  • Strong Sell (1/5): Poor score - strong negative indicator
    • Significantly underperforms industry (bottom 20%)
    • Indicates potential risk or overvaluation in that category
Note: The overall rating combines all six component scores to provide a comprehensive investment assessment. No single metric should be used in isolation for investment decisions.
