Quality points: four grades for balance sheet, profitability, cash flow and growth, 0 to 5 each.
No range
No reliable range can be derived for this company. 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.

The comparison is within the SEC industry “Orthopedic, Prosthetic & Surgical Appliances & Supplies”. 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. The company reports as a foreign issuer (Form 20-F) in USD, while it trades in the US in dollars, often as a depositary receipt (ADR) for several ordinary shares. We show a range only once the ratio between the traded security and the ordinary share and the currency conversion are documented. The grades are not affected: they only use ratios within the annual report.
Every figure comes from the annual report of that year and has not been revised afterwards. Amounts in USD. Negative net debt means more cash than financial debt.
Amounts in USD, as in the annual report (Form 20-F). Earnings per share and share count refer to the company’s ordinary shares, not to the securities traded in the US, which may represent several ordinary shares.

| Feature | Points | Measured |
|---|---|---|
| Return on capital, level | 0/3 | The company earns on average 7.0% of its assets per year as operating profit, measured over 10 years. Comparable companies are around 10%. |
| Return on capital, consistency | 0/3 | 3 of 10 years above 10%. Consistency is the real evidence, because anyone has one good year. |
| Pricing power | 2/2 | Gross margin averaging 70%, trending −4.4 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 | 1/2 | Operating margin averaging 12%. Tested in 2020 and 2022: 2020 6%, 2022 9%. 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.
