Key figures with traffic lights

Each light follows a simple, disclosed rule. The comparison is with the sector median of all 90 symbols in the Industrials sector on our list (current members of the S&P 500 and other lists).

Revenue growth

Light yellow: below sector

+6.7% per year, last 5 years

Sector Industrials: median +8.0% (82 symbols)

What does this mean? Revenue: over 5 years it grew by 6.7% per year on average, but more slowly than the median company in the sector (+8.0%).

Light rule: Green: grows at least as fast as the sector median (without a sector comparison: grows) · Yellow: grows more slowly · Red: shrinks.

Net income (total)

Light yellow: below sector

+5.9% per year, last 5 years

Sector Industrials: median +10.0% (66 symbols)

per share: +7.0% per year (5 years, split-adjusted)

What does this mean? Total net income: over 5 years it grew by 5.9% per year on average, but more slowly than the median company in the sector (+10.0%).

Light rule: Green: grows at least as fast as the sector median (without a sector comparison: grows) · Yellow: grows more slowly · Red: shrinks.

Net margin

Light yellow: below sector

8.0% last fiscal year

Sector Industrials: median 11.1% (88 symbols)

What does this mean? Of every 100 USD in revenue, 8.01 USD remained as profit – less than the median company in the sector (11.1%). Five years ago the margin was 8.4%.

Light rule: Green: at least the sector median (without a sector comparison: profit) · Yellow: profit, but below the median · Red: loss.

Debt / equity

Light green: lower than sector

0.24 latest balance sheet

Sector Industrials: median 0.58 (77 symbols)

What does this mean? For every 1 USD of equity there is 0.24 USD of financial debt – no more than the median company in the sector (0.58). More debt amplifies good and bad years alike.

Light rule: Green: at most the sector median · Yellow: up to twice the median · Red: more than twice · Gray: without a sector comparison.

Payout ratio

Light gray: none found

– Dividend / earnings per share

Sector Industrials: median 35% (65 symbols)

What does this mean? The loaded SEC filings of the last two fiscal years contain no dividend per share. Either the company pays none, or it reports it under a different tag.

Light rule: Green: up to 60% of earnings · Yellow: up to 100% · Red: more than earnings or a dividend despite a loss · Gray for real estate (REITs). The sector median is for comparison only.

Profitable years

Light green: profit every year

10 of 10 fiscal years with a profit

What does this mean? In 10 of the last 10 fiscal years the bottom line showed a profit. There were no losses in this period.

Light rule: Green: profit in every year · Yellow: one loss year · Red: several loss years (at least 3 years needed).

* Q4 derived: fiscal year minus the 9-month value (EPS cannot be derived this way); may be distorted by restatements.

How we calculate: values as first reported to the SEC (later corrections are left out), a fixed order of reporting tags per figure, partial sums are never added up. Growth per year over 5 years (otherwise 3 years). Quarters are labeled by the calendar quarter in which they end.
