Why n/m

For a bank, an insurer, a broker or investment firm, or a mortgage trust, operating cash flow swings with the size of the loan, trading and funding book rather than with operating performance, so free cash flow is not the measure of the business. Look at earnings and capital adequacy.

The business, and the score behind its five axes

The reading, in brief

Is it cheap

Price to earnings is 11.84x at the close of 2026-10-15 on FY2026 figures; the lines are 15.00x (Graham's defensive ceiling) and, by market convention, 10.00x, 25.00x and 40.00x, and this sits between 10.00x and 15.00x.

Today, against the Financial - Capital Markets industry (36 companies), 11.84x sits at the 20th percentile; the middle half of that group runs from 12.68x to 23.09x.

Is it good

Return on equity was 9.8% in FY2026, in the band labelled "Ordinary" (8.0% to 15.0%), on lines anchored on Damodaran's cost-of-capital data.

Today, against the Financial - Capital Markets industry (64 companies), 9.8% sits at the 59th percentile; the middle half of that group runs from -23.4% to 16.4%.

Is it safe

Debt to equity was 4.71 in FY2026, in the band labelled "Heavily leveraged" (2.00 and above), on lines anchored on Graham's defensive-investor criteria, suggesting heavy reliance on borrowing.

Today, against the Financial Services sector (80 companies), 4.71 sits at the 94th 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.

Earnings, compound annual growth FY2017 to FY2026: 4.7%
Earnings per share: Fewer than two filed years carry earnings per share.
Free cash flow: Free cash flow was not positive in both 2017 and 2026, so a compound rate across the window is not defined. Both figures are in the table.

Every figure in this section is a line of a filed annual statement or a ratio of two of them. Nothing here is estimated or smoothed. Earnings per share filed before a share split are put on today's share count, and say so. Nothing here is a verdict on the company.

The named tests

Of 30 tests value investors published: 2 met, 16 not met, 12 we could not complete. Counts, never a score: a single figure would have to decide that meeting one investor’s criteria and meeting another’s are worth the same.

Which tests, by name(all 30)

Meets: Low P/S, rising earnings (James O'Shaughnessy); Cheapest quarter on P/E (David Dreman)
Does not: Defensive investor (Benjamin Graham); Deep value; High F-score, low P/B (Joseph Piotroski); Low PEG, low debt (Peter Lynch); High returns and growth; Gross margin, turnover (Robert Novy-Marx); High yield, low payout; Low beta, profitable; Near the 52-week low; Z-score and coverage (Edward Altman); High returns, low debt; High return on tangibles; Book or below, low debt (Walter Schloss); Tangible book or below; Clean books, high ROIC; Cheapest quarter on P/B (David Dreman)
Not measured: Large cap, low P/E; Earnings yield and ROIC (Joel Greenblatt); Three forensic scores; EV/EBITDA and coverage; Dividends and buybacks; ROIC at or above WACC; Two thirds of NCAV (Benjamin Graham); P/E times P/B (Benjamin Graham); Owner earnings yield; Cash-covered dividend; Cash-flow yield and ROIC; Low P/E, growth, yield (John Neff). A test with a figure we could not read is incomplete, never met and never failed.

Figures we could not read(20)

Current Ratio: Our archived statements for this filer carry no current assets line, so we cannot compute this from source and show you where it came from.
Positive Earnings Streak: The latest filed year has no per-share earnings we can read; the test needs 10.
Piotroski F-Score: 2 of the nine Piotroski signals are undefined for a capital markets firm: signal 6 (rising current ratio), signal 8 (rising gross margin). We do not publish a partial score under the full score's name.
EV/EBIT: Enterprise value adds debt and subtracts cash. For a financial company both are the business itself, so the resulting multiple has no economic meaning.
Return on Invested Capital: Invested capital is equity plus debt less cash. A financial company's debt and cash are operating positions, so returns measured against that base are not comparable to an operating business.
Altman Z-Score: Altman's Z-Score was estimated on manufacturers and explicitly excludes financial firms. A financial company scores in the distress zone by construction, so the number would be wrong rather than alarming. Not applicable to financials.
Beneish M-Score: The Beneish M-Score is built on gross margin, receivables and asset quality indices estimated on non-financial firms. Those inputs are not defined here.
Eps Growth 5Y: We do not hold this figure for this company, so there is nothing to show.
Gross Margin: Our archived statements for this filer carry no gross profit line, so there is nothing to compute a gross margin from and trace back to source. That may be because the filer presents no cost of revenue, or because we have not captured the concept. We do not guess which.
EV/EBITDA: Enterprise value adds debt and subtracts cash. For a financial company both are the business itself, so the resulting multiple has no economic meaning.
Interest Coverage: No operating income line is filed for this year.
Dividend Yield: The latest year paid at least 1.5 times the year before, which reads as a special distribution rather than a run rate.
Free Cash Flow Yield: For a bank, an insurer, a broker or investment firm, or a mortgage trust, operating cash flow swings with the size of the loan, trading and funding book rather than with operating performance, so free cash flow is not the measure of the business. Look at earnings and capital adequacy.
Share Count Change Yoy: We do not hold this figure for this company, so there is nothing to show.
ROIC-WACC Spread: Invested capital is equity plus debt less cash. A financial company's debt and cash are operating positions, so returns measured against that base are not comparable to an operating business.
Price To Ncav: Net current asset value needs current assets, which an unclassified balance sheet does not report.
Price To Graham: We do not hold this figure for this company, so there is nothing to show.
Owner Earnings Yield: For a bank, an insurer, a broker or investment firm, or a mortgage trust, operating cash flow swings with the size of the loan, trading and funding book rather than with operating performance, so free cash flow is not the measure of the business. Look at earnings and capital adequacy.
Capex To Ocf: For a bank, an insurer, a broker or investment firm, or a mortgage trust, operating cash flow swings with the size of the loan, trading and funding book rather than with operating performance, so free cash flow is not the measure of the business. Look at earnings and capital adequacy.
Dividend Coverage Ratio: For a bank, an insurer, a broker or investment firm, or a mortgage trust, operating cash flow swings with the size of the loan, trading and funding book rather than with operating performance, so free cash flow is not the measure of the business. Look at earnings and capital adequacy.

Next step

What to do with what you have read.

Value it in the DCF workbench

A thesis is your reason for owning it, in your words, with the figures that must stay true. Checking those figures every night against the newest filed accounts, and telling you once when one breaks, is what the subscription adds.

What this cannot tell you

20 figures could not be read on this company, among them Current Ratio, Positive Earnings Streak, Piotroski F-Score. Each blank in the table above names the rest, with its reason. 12 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.
