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 2026-05-02 · 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.

Note 12. Commitments and Contingencies Environmental matters The Company is not aware of any potential unasserted environmental claims that may be brought against us. The Company is involved in environmental investigations and/or remediation at two of its United States plant sites no longer used for operations and one currently operating site in Mexico. The Company uses environmental consultants to assist us in evaluating its environmental liabilities in order to establish appropriate accruals in its consolidated financial statements. Accruals are recorded when environmental remediation is probable and the costs can be reasonably estimated. A number of factors affect the cost of environmental remediation, including the determination of the extent of contamination, the length of time remediation may require, the complexity of environmental regulations, and the advancement of remediation technology. Considering these factors, the Company has estimated (without discounting) the costs of remediation. Recovery from insurance or other third parties is not anticipated. The Company is not yet able to determine when such remediation activity will be complete, but estimates for certain remediation efforts are projected through fiscal 2026. As of May 2, 2026 and May 3, 2025 , the Company had accruals, primarily based upon independent estimates, for environmental matters of $ 0.8 million and $ 1.0 million, respectively. The accrual as of May 2, 2026 consists of $ 0.5 million classified i …

Revenue recognition · 6,787 characters as filed
"Note 2. Revenue The Company generates revenue from manufacturing products for its customers in diversified global markets under multi-year programs. Typically, these programs do not contain a firm commitment by the customer for volume or price and do not reach the level of a performance obligation until the Company receives either a purchase order and/or a materials release from the customer for a specific quantity at a specified price, at which point an enforceable contract exists. Contracts may also provide for annual price reductions over the production life of a program, and prices may be adjusted on an ongoing basis to reflect changes in product content/cost and other commercial factors. The majority of the Companys revenue is recognized at a point in time. The Company has determined that the most definitive demonstration that control has transferred to a customer is physical shipment or delivery, depending on the contractual shipping terms, except for consignment transactions. Consignment transactions are arrangements where the Company transfers product to a customer location but retains ownership and control of such product until it is used by the customer. Revenue for consignment arrangements is recognized upon the customers usage. The Companys revenue also includes customer cost recoveries, which represent reimbursements the Company receives from customers for incremental costs associated with spot purchases of raw materials and premium freight incurred in fulfillin …

The Company is, from time-to-time, subject to various legal actions and claims incidental to our business, including those arising out of alleged defects, breach of contracts, employment-related matters, environmental matters and intellectual property matters. The Company has established loss provisions for matters in which losses are deemed probable and reasonably estimable. The Company considers insurance coverage and third-party indemnification, among other things, when determining required accruals for pending litigation and claims. Although the outcome of potential legal actions and claims cannot be predicted with certainty, it is the Company's opinion, based on the information available, that it has adequate reserves for these liabilities. However, the ultimate outcome of any matter could require payment in excess of any amount that the Company may have accrued.

Note 4. Income Taxes For the three and nine months ended January 31, 2026, the Company utilized the discrete effective tax rate method, treating the year-to-date period as if it was the annual period to calculate its interim income tax provision. The Company concluded it could not use the estimated annual effective tax rate method as it could not calculate a reliable estimate of the annual effective tax rate due to it being highly sensitive to minor changes in the forecasted amounts, thus generating significant variability in the estimated annual effective tax rate and distorting the customary relationship between income tax expense and pre-tax loss in interim periods. The Companys income tax expense and effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended January 31, 2026 and February 1, 2025 were as follows: Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended January 31, 2026 February 1, 2025 January 31, 2026 February 1, 2025 ($ in millions) (13 Weeks) (13 Weeks) (39 Weeks) (40 Weeks) Pre-tax income (loss) $ ( 13.1 ) $ ( 8.2 ) $ ( 23.4 ) $ ( 19.7 ) Income tax expense 2.8 6.2 12.7 14.6 Effective tax rate ( 21.4 )% ( 75.6 )% ( 54.3 )% ( 74.1 )% The effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended January 31, 2026 differs from the U.S. federal statutory tax rate of 21 % primarily due to an increase in a valuation allowance for U.S. deferred tax assets of $ 2.4 million and $ 6.4 million, respectively, and an unfavorable effect from global intangible low-tax income (GILTI) and non-dedu …

Revenue recognition · 5,224 characters as filed
"Note 2. Revenue The Company generates revenue from manufacturing products for customers in diversified global markets under multi-year programs. Typically, these programs do not contain a firm commitment by the customer for volume or price and do not reach the level of a performance obligation until the Company receives either a purchase order and/or a materials release from the customer for a specific quantity at a specified price, at which point an enforceable contract exists. Contracts may also provide for annual price reductions over the production life of a program, and prices may be adjusted on an ongoing basis to reflect changes in product content/cost and other commercial factors. The majority of the Companys revenue is recognized at a point in time. The Company has determined that the most definitive demonstration that control has transferred to a customer is physical shipment or delivery, depending on the contractual shipping terms, except for consignment transactions. Consignment transactions are arrangements where the Company transfers product to a customer location but retains ownership and control of such product until it is used by the customer. Revenue for consignment arrangements is recognized upon the customers usage. The Companys revenue also includes customer cost recoveries, which represent reimbursements the Company receives from customers for incremental costs incurred in fulfilling its performance obligation to the customer. Given these cost recoverie …
