More points than 48% of the 3,075 companies with complete grades
Quality points: four grades for balance sheet, profitability, cash flow and growth, 0 to 5 each.
No range
No price yet for European companies. The reason is given under Valuation.
Some of the quality rules are met.
What this means. The quality points show how many of the published rules for balance sheet, profitability, cash flow and growth the latest reports meet. Separately, the range shows how the latest closing share price compares with the company’s own valuation history.
What it does not mean. Neither the points nor the range is a price target, a forecast or a recommendation to buy or sell. A company with many points can be richly valued, and a price below its range often has a reason.
When a new report changes a grade, Pro tells you why. You do not have to check every report yourself.

To the calculationAll values come from the annual financial reports in the European single electronic format ESEF (consolidated IFRS accounts). Each figure is checked against five fixed thresholds; each threshold reached counts one point. The grade is the rounded mean of its figures.

The comparison is within the SEC industry “Pharmaceutical Preparations”. Grades are absolute and are not adjusted to the industry: in a weak industry a weak grade stays weak.
More quality points do not mean a company is the better investment, only that more quality rules are met. It says nothing about the price.
No range is reported for this company. For European companies we do not show prices or a range yet: a licensed price series from the European exchanges is still missing. The grades are not affected, they only use the annual financial report.
Every figure comes from the annual report of that year and has not been revised afterwards. Amounts in EUR. Negative net debt means more cash than financial debt.

Keep reading for free4 of 10 points, measured over 8 years (2018 to 2025). Classification: weak. These points are not part of the quality points.
| Feature | Points | Measured |
|---|---|---|
| Return on capital, level | 0/3 | The company earns on average 5.5% of its assets per year as operating profit, measured over 8 years. Comparable companies are around 10%. |
| Return on capital, consistency | 0/3 | 1 of 8 years above 10%. Consistency is the real evidence, because anyone has one good year. |
| Pricing power | 2/2 | Gross margin averaging 73%, trending +6.3 percentage points from the first third to the last. A margin that holds for a decade is pricing power. One that melts away is competition. |
| Stability in a downturn | 2/2 | Operating margin averaging 18%. Tested in 2020 and 2022: 2020 39%, 2022 27%. Holding counts from two thirds of the company's own average. |
What is measured is the trace of a moat: a durably high return on capital and margins that survive a downturn. The causes (switching costs, network effects, brand, licences, economies of scale) appear in no filing and are not claimed here.
