  • SGA is relatively consistent
  • Avg. SGA is ≈51.4%, which is moderate. Ideally, this would be under 30%. If it's closer to 70%, it's on the bad side of the range.
  • R&D as % of Gross Profit is 13.11% on average, which is low. Below 5% is very low and above 30% becomes high. The more a company has to invest into R&D, the more likely it's competitive advantages could be made obsolete in the future.

Income/Loss

  • Net Income is relatively inconsistent. When Net Income is inconsistent, it's hard to determine a value of the company you can feel confident in.
  • Net Income / Total Revenues is 24.22% on average. This is good when it's above 10%. When comparing with competitors, the company with the highest ratio will likely be the one with the competitive advantage.
  • Earnings Per Share is relatively inconsistent. Erratic earnings picture is a red flag that indicates a fiercely competitive industry with lots of booms and busts. During the bust part of the cycle, the stock price might fall significantly after a bad earnings performance. This creates the illusion of a value buying opportunity but it’s not. Also keep in mind if the company has had stock splits or reverse splits.

Assets & Liabilities

  • Inventory has been pretty consistent. Check if it's rising together with net earnings. If it is, that means the rising inventory is to keep with sales at the appropriate levels. What you don't want to see if wild variation in inventory levels, which would indicate boom & bust cycles.
  • Property, Plant and Equipment has been pretty consistent. A stable PPE indicates that the company might not need to continuously reinvest into recreating their products, which might indicate the presence of a competitive advantage.
  • Goodwill is relatively consistent. If Goodwill stays the same year after year, it’s because it’s paying under book value for companies it’s purchasing or because it’s not purchasing other companies.
  • Total Assets on average has been really high. This can be a competitive advantage because raising that much cash to compete with the business becomes much harder.

Ownership

  • Return on Shareholders' Equity has been 5.25%, which is low (<10%). If Net Income as percentage of Total Revenue also weak (<10%) or negative, it’s a red flag. If it's strong (>10%), it's a green flag since this indicates that they are returning the earnings to shareholders somehow.
