SGA is relatively consistent
Avg. SGA is ≈52.56%, 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 3.85% on average, which is very low. This can indicate that the business does not need to reinvent it's products in order to maintain it's competitive advantage(s) if it has them.

The tax rate (Income Tax Paid / Pretax Income) is 24.95% on average, which is well above the 21% corporate tax rate. It might be worth trying to understand what's going on.
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 72.29% on average. This is usually excellent. However, you're looking at a financial business, use caution because a high ratio could mean relaxing of standards, which means increased risk, which could lead to disaster in the future.
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.

Inventory has been relatively inconsistent. Rise and falls, especially if they aren't aligned with earnings, is not what you want because it indicates a boom and bust cycle. The rise of inventory happens after a boom cycle and fall of inventory usually happens after the bust part of the cycle.
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 inconsistent. Increasing Goodwill indicates that the company is out buying other companies at prices above their book value. This can be a good thing if it’s buying companies that have competitive advantages or it can be ignorable/bad if the acquired companies did not have competitive advantages.
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.

Return on Shareholders' Equity has been 7.56%, 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.
