Each filer's latest fiscal year as stored by the nightly crawl; fiscal year ends differ across the universe. A metric ranks only filers for which it is computable from filed facts. Ties split; a rank reads "better than N% of filers" in the metric's own direction. Descriptive and educational, not a rating.
Earnings quality
latest fiscal year ending 2025-12-31 · accruals and cash conversion as filedPer fiscal year from filed facts: cash conversion = operating cash flow / net income (net income > 0); cash-flow accrual ratio = (net income - operating cash flow) / average total assets; balance-sheet accrual ratio = change in net operating assets / average net operating assets, NOA = (assets - cash) - (liabilities - debt). Descriptive; a missing input yields a missing ratio. High accrual ratios and cash conversion well below one are the measures the accruals literature associates with less persistent earnings; they are screens to read the cash-flow statement with, not conclusions. The per-year series is part of Pro risk analysis.

Share-Based Awards The Company has share-based compensation plans which were approved by its shareholders in April 2020 and May 2021 (the Plans) under which its Board of Directors may grant to employees share-based awards including restricted stock units (RSUs), performance shares, aspirational performance shares and nonqualified stock options. RSUs generally vest ratably over a three-year period. Performance shares include a three-year performance period with vesting based on achievement of internal performance targets and include a vesting component based on a Total Shareholder Return (TSR) relative to a peer group. Aspirational performance shares would have been earned only to the extent the aspirational share price goals for the Company's stock were achieved by December 31, 2025. If a share price goal had been met, then 50% of the associated aspirational performance shares would have vested and the remaining would have 50% vested on the one-year anniversary of the date on which the share price goal was achieved. The aspirational share price goals were not met by December 31, 2025, so the shares did not vest. Dividend or dividend equivalents are paid on RSUs, performance shares and aspirational shares that ultimately vest. At December 31, 2025, there were 2.2 million shares of common stock available for future awards under the Plans. The Company recognizes the cost of its share-based awards in the Consolidated statements of operations . The cost of each share-based equity …

Leases · 3,744 characters as filed
Leases The Company determines if an arrangement is or contains a lease at contract inception. Right-of-use (ROU) assets related to the Company's leases are recorded in Lease assets and lease liabilities are recorded in Accrued liabilities and Lease liability on the Consolidated balance sheets . ROU assets represent the Companys right to use an underlying asset over the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company's obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of future lease payments over the lease term. The ROU asset also includes prepaid lease payments and initial direct costs and is reduced for lease incentives paid by the lessor. The discount rate used to determine the present value is generally the Company's incremental borrowing rate because the implicit rate in the lease is not readily determinable. The lease term used to calculate the ROU asset and lease liabilities includes periods covered by options to extend or terminate when the Company is reasonably certain the lease term will include these optional periods. In accordance with ASC Topic 842, Leases (ASC Topic 842), the Company elected the short-term lease practical expedient that allows entities to recognize lease payments on a straight-line basis over the lease term for leases with a term of 12 months or less. The Company has also elected the practical expedient under ASC Topic 842 all …
