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 2025-10-31 · 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.

NOTE 12 - SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION On April 2, 2025, at its annual meeting of shareholders, the shareholders of Photronics, Inc., approved the Companys 2025 Equity Incentive Compensation Plan (the 2025 Plan) under which incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, stock grants, stock-based awards, restricted stock, restricted stock units, stock appreciation rights, performance units, performance stock, and other stock or cash awards may be granted. The maximum number of shares of common stock that may be issued under the 2025 Plan is five million shares. At the time of approval of the 2025 Plan, the Companys 2016 Equity Incentive Compensation Plan (which was largely replicated by the 2025 Plan) was due to expire in early 2026 and had a limited quantity of shares remaining available for issuance. Awards may be granted to officers, employees, directors, consultants, advisors, and independent contractors of Photronics or its subsidiaries. In the event of a change in control (as defined in the 2025 Plan), the vesting of awards may be accelerated. The 2025 Plan prohibits further awards from being issued under prior plans. The table below presents information on the Companys share-based compensation expenses for the three most recent fiscal years.

Fair value · 2,300 characters as filed
NOTE 21 - FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS The accounting framework for determining fair value includes a hierarchy for ranking the quality and reliability of the information used to measure fair value, which enables the reader of the financial statements to assess the inputs used to develop those measurements. The fair value hierarchy consists of three tiers as follows: Level 1- These are investments where values are based on unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets in an active market the Company has the ability to access. Level 2- These are investments where values are based on quoted market prices that are not active or model derived valuations in which all significant inputs are observable in active markets. Level 3- These are investments where values are derived from techniques in which one or more significant inputs are unobservable. The following are the major categories of assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis using quoted prices in active markets for identical assets (Level 1), significant other observable inputs (Level 2) and significant unobservable inputs (Level 3): October 31, 2025 October 31, 2024 Cash and cash equivalents Short-term investments Total Fair Value Cash and cash equivalents Short-term investments Total Fair Value Cash $ 222,166 $ - $ 222,166 $ 414,074 $ - $ 414,074 Level 1 U.S. Government Securities 3,789 25,157 28,946 - - - Money market funds 11,159 - 11,159 36,322 - 36,322 Level 2 Commercial paper 30,747 2,259 33,006 - - - Time deposits …

NOTE 14 INCOME TAXES On December 15, 2022, the European Union (EU) Member States formally adopted the EUs Pillar Two Directive, which generally provides for a minimum effective tax rate of 15%, as established by the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) Pillar Two Framework. The EU effective dates are January 1, 2024, and January 1, 2025, for different aspects of the directive.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements In December 2025, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2025-11, Interim Reporting (Topic 270): Narrow Scope Improvements, which improves the navigability of the required interim disclosures and clarifies when that guidance is applicable. The guidance in this ASU will be effective for Photronics for interim reporting periods in its first quarter of fiscal year 2028 Form 10-Q. The amendments can be applied either (1) prospectively or (2) retrospectively to any or all prior periods presented in the financial statements.

This update establishes authoritative guidance on the accounting for government grants received by business entities.

Revenue recognition · 9,959 characters as filed
NOTE 8 - REVENUE The Company recognizes revenue when, or as, control of a good or service transfers to a customer, in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring those goods or services. The Company accounts for an arrangement as a revenue contract when each party has approved and is committed to perform under the contract, the rights of the contracting parties regarding the goods or services to be transferred and the payment terms are identifiable, the arrangement has commercial substance, and collection of consideration is probable. Substantially all of the Companys revenue comes from the sales of photomasks. The Company typically contracts with its customers to sell sets of photomasks, which are comprised of multiple layers, the predominance of which the Company invoices as they ship to customers. As the photomasks are manufactured to customer specifications, they have no alternative use to the Company and, as the Companys contracts generally provide it with the right to payment for work completed to date, the Company recognizes revenue as it performs, or over time, on most of its contracts. The Company measures its performance to date using an input method, which is based on the Companys estimated costs to complete the various manufacturing phases of a photomask. At the end of a reporting period, there are a number of uncompleted revenue contracts on which the Company has performed; for any such contra …
