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.

To the calculation
Quality
The four grades and how they are calculated
All values come from the annual reports filed with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Each figure is checked against five fixed thresholds; each threshold reached counts one point. The grade is the rounded mean of its figures.
Profitability

Compared with its industry
The comparison is within the SEC industry “Services-Prepackaged Software”. 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.
Valuation
The price against its own history
For each fiscal year 2016 to 2025, the calculation shows how the market valued the company, for example as price divided by earnings per share. The middle band of those years gives its own range. It comes from this company’s history, not from a comparison with others.
Price vs. its own range Range from 6 measures, well supported
The range describes how the share price compares with the company’s own past. It is not a fair value, not a price target and not a forecast.
Each measure over the years
How was the company valued in the past?
Every valuation measure over the last 5 fiscal years, with price, basis and range. Historical ranges are orientation, not a forecast. With a free account.

How durable the advantage is
4 of 10 points, measured over 10 years (2016 to 2025). Classification: weak. These points are not part of the quality points.
| Feature | Points | Measured |
|---|---|---|
| Return on capital, level | 1/3 | The company earns on average 7.8% 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 57%, trending +11.4 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 8%. Tested in 2020 and 2022: 2020 1%, 2022 7%. 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.
Next figures: expected on 3 Nov 2026 (estimated from the rhythm of earlier filings, ± 3 days). Grades can change after a report; the page is then rebuilt.
