The business, and the score behind its five axes

The reading, in brief

Is it cheap

Price to earnings is 5.45x at the close of 2026-10-15 on FY2025 figures; the lines are 15.00x (Graham's defensive ceiling) and, by market convention, 10.00x, 25.00x and 40.00x, and this sits below the lowest.

Today, against the Healthcare sector (223 companies), 5.45x sits at the 11th percentile; the middle half of that group runs from 13.52x to 42.98x.

Is it good

Return on equity was 9.9% in FY2025, in the band labelled "Ordinary" (8.0% to 15.0%), on lines anchored on Damodaran's cost-of-capital data.

Today, against the Healthcare sector (896 companies), 9.9% sits at the 83rd percentile; the middle half of that group runs from -112.6% to -3.0%.

Is it safe

Current ratio was 20.15 in FY2025, in the band labelled "At or above Graham's requirement" (2.00 and above), on lines anchored on Graham's defensive-investor criteria, suggesting short-term assets well above short-term obligations.

Today, against the Healthcare sector (1011 companies), 20.15 sits at the 96th percentile; the middle half of that group runs from 1.65 to 6.93.

The figures are computed from the accounts for fiscal 2025, the newest full year on file. 10 filed fiscal years on record, FY2016 to FY2025, from SEC EDGAR. Prices as of Oct 15, 2026. Ratios recomputed Oct 15, 2026. Two facts, because a recompute is not a fresh quote.

The year and the filing date name the statement each figure’s accounts are read from, and they stand even where the figure itself could not be computed: the line beneath a blank says what that statement did not carry. A figure’s name opens its formula and the filings behind it; a statement that names no SEC filing has no filing date, and reads n/a.

More on this company

What this cannot tell you

  • 16 figures could not be read on this company, among them Debt to Equity, Positive Earnings Streak, EV/EBIT. Each blank in the table above names the rest, with its reason. 11 named tests come back incomplete because of them, which is neither met nor missed.

And the one that is true of all of it: This is what the numbers say today. It cannot tell you the day one of them stops being true. Nothing here can, because the reasons are not written down.

Running this once is arithmetic on public documents and you are welcome to it. Writing down why you own each company, in your own words and with the numbers that have to stay true for it to hold, and then having those numbers re-checked every night against the newest filed accounts, and against the latest close where a rule watches a price, is Professional, the plan a new account starts on for 30 days, one trial per person. It writes to you the day one breaks, and stays quiet when nothing does. The check runs every night at 23:30 UTC. A filing is picked up the night after it is published.

No card. 30 free days, and nothing is charged unless you choose a plan.
