The tax rate (Income Tax Paid / Pretax Income) is 26.1% 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 63.69% 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.

Assets & Liabilities

Company's without competitive advantage have an ever increasing amount of PPE, which is going also be accompanied by increasing Depreciation expenses. This is a bad because it eats into the profits of the company and indicates that the company likely needs to continuously reinvent their products. This could indicate they are facing fierce competition and a lack of a competitive advantage. It’s particularly worse if the increases in PPE investments are done using debt, rather than internal sources so check debt growth.
