The reading, in brief

Is it cheap

Price to earnings is 0.46x 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 Financial - Credit Services industry (43 companies), 0.46x sits at the 1st percentile; the middle half of that group runs from 6.66x to 19.92x.

Is it good

Return on invested capital was 14.8% in FY2025, in the band labelled "Above the cost of capital" (12.0% to 20.0%), on lines anchored on Damodaran's cost-of-capital data.

Today, against the Financial Services sector (75 companies), 14.8% sits at the 85th percentile; the middle half of that group runs from -0.5% to 9.4%.

Is it safe

Debt to equity was 0.14 in FY2025, in the band labelled "Conservative" (below 0.50), on lines anchored on Graham's defensive-investor criteria, suggesting a balance sheet that relies little on borrowing.

Today, against the Financial Services sector (80 companies), 0.14 sits at the 21st percentile; the middle half of that group runs from 0.21 to 1.42.

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.

  • Revenue, compound annual growth FY2016 to FY2025: 13.1%
  • Earnings: Earnings was not positive in both 2016 and 2025, so a compound rate across the window is not defined. Both figures are in the table.
  • Earnings per share: Fewer than two filed years carry earnings per share.

What this cannot tell you

  • 10 figures could not be read on this company, among them Current Ratio, Positive Earnings Streak, Altman Z-Score. Each blank in the table above names the rest, with its reason. 9 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.
