Figures as filed with the SEC for the period ended 30 June 2026, in US dollars.
FundSpec fundamental metrics
Each metric is computed from the company's filings and ranked against every company FundSpec covers; the percentile is the share of covered companies with a lower value.
Liquidity
| Metric | Value | Percentile | What it measures |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cash Ratio | 0.70 | 68th | Calculated as the ratio of Cash and cash equivalents / Current liabilities. This metric calculates the company's ability to repay its short-term debt |
| Current Ratio | 2.43 | 74th | Calculated as the ratio of Current Assets / Current Liabilities. The higher the current ratio, the more capable the company is of paying its obligations |
| Quick Ratio | 1.17 | 63rd | Calculated as the ratio of (Cash + Marketable Securities + Accounts Receivable) / Current Liabilities. The quick ratio is a measure of how well a company can meet its short-term financial liabilities. |
Leverage
| Metric | Value | Percentile | What it measures |
|---|---|---|---|
| Debt/Assets | 0.18 | 64th | Calculated as the ratio of Short-Term Debt + Long-Term Debt / Total Assets. The higher the ratio, the higher the degree of leverage, and consequently, financial risk |
| Debt/Equity | 0.30 | 54th | Calculated as the ratio of Total Liabilities / Shareholders' Equity. The ratio indicates how much debt a company is using to finance its assets relative to the amount of value represented in shareholders’ equity |
| Long Term Debt/Long Term Capital | 0.23 | 33rd | Calculated as Long-Term Debt / (Long-Term Debt + Shareholders' Equity). The ratio is an indicator of the company's leverage |
Profitability
| Metric | Value | Percentile | What it measures |
|---|---|---|---|
| Free Cashflow Margin Pct | -14.4% | 25th | Calculated as the ratio of Free Cashflow from Operating Activities / Net Sales. It measures how much per dollar of revenue the company is able to convert into free cash flow. |
| Gross Margin Pct | 37.5% | 48th | Calculated as the ratio of Revenue - Cost of Goods Sold (COGS) / Revenue. The gross margin represents the percent of total sales revenue that the company retains after incurring the direct costs associated with producing the goods and services sold by a company. |
| PreTax Margin Pct | 12.2% | 67th | Calculated as the ratio of (Gross profit - (Operating Expense + Interest Expense)) / Revenue. The pretax profit margin enables profitability to be compared across companies with significant differences in size, scale, capital structure and tax rates. |
| Return on Assets Pct | 4.8% | 80th | Calculated as the ratio of Net Income / Total Assets. It is an indicator of how efficient the company is at using its assets to generate earnings. |
| Return on Equity Pct | 9.7% | 65th | Calculated as the ratio of Net Income / Shareholders' equity. It is a measure of how much profit a company generates with the money shareholders have invested. |
Cashflow
| Metric | Value | Percentile | What it measures |
|---|---|---|---|
| FCF Return on Assets Pct | -6.2% | 31st | Calculated as the ratio of Cashflow from Operations / Total Assets. A high cash return on assets means a company is generating more cash flow from every asset dollar |
| Operating Cashflow Pct Growth | -87.5% | 2nd | The Operating Cashflow growth rate over the trailing twelve months (TTM) |
| Operating Cashflow Pct Growth 3 year CAGR (FY) | -49.9% | 8th | The Operating Cashflow compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over the past 3 years |
| Operating Cashflow Pct Growth 5 year CAGR (FY) | -32.7% | 10th | The Operating Cashflow compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over the past 5 years |
Earnings Growth (Net Income)
| Metric | Value | Percentile | What it measures |
|---|---|---|---|
| Net Income Pct Growth | 400.0% | 97th | The Net Income growth rate over the trailing twelve months (TTM) |
| Net Income Pct Growth 5 year CAGR | 22.0% | 82nd | The Net Income compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over the past 5 years |
Top Line Growth
| Metric | Value | Percentile | What it measures |
|---|---|---|---|
| Revenue Pct Growth | 22.5% | 78th | The Revenue (Sales) growth rate over the trailing twelve months (TTM) |
| Revenue Pct Growth 3 year CAGR | 11.3% | 69th | The Revenue (Sales) compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over the past 3 years |
| Revenue Pct Growth 5 year CAGR | 18.0% | 80th | The Revenue (Sales) compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over the past 5 years |
Taxes
