In each lane the line is the rule's threshold, the dot is the stock's value and the bar between them is the gap. Market cap, price and volume use a log scale: one step is ten times. A value beyond the end sits at the edge as an open dot.

Weaknesses

  • Sales changed − 86.1% year over year last quarter, below the 10% floor.
  • Current ratio of 0.10; short-term liabilities exceed current assets.
  • The price is 66.2% below its 52-week high.
  • Thin trading: about 517 K shares a day.

Strengths

  • Market cap of $820 M, comfortably above the size floor.
  • Share price of $15.20, outside penny-stock territory.
  • Debt to equity of 0.00; a light debt load.
  • Beat the S&P 500 by 41.7 points over six months.
  • The price is 83.4% above its 52-week low.

Next Steps

  1. Trading volume is low. Expect wider spreads and price impact on larger orders.
  2. The stock is far from its high. Do not treat it as cheap before finding why it fell (results, competition, sector); wait for the price to confirm a turn.
  3. Write down the concrete reason for growth: a new product, a contract, management or an industry shift. If you cannot say it in one sentence, waiting may be the better choice.

What You Should Check

  1. Is there a concrete reason for growth, and can you say it in one sentence?
  2. Where does the valuation sit against sector peers?
  3. Does the chart confirm the trend, or are you fighting a falling price?
  4. Is the position size within the loss you could bear if you are wrong?

The score averages the measurable rules with category weights: growth 30, price strength 20, profitability 15, health 15, ownership 10, catalysts 10. A pass counts in full, a caution half; rules we cannot measure stay out. A stock that hits an elimination rule is capped at 45. Growth above 300% counts as a base effect and is marked as a caution.
