7.1/10headline grade
vs its business-model standard
7.5/10past 7.6/10present 6.0/10future

Three tenses, nine metrics. Unseen metrics stay unseen; the grade never fakes a number. Proxy era: provisional values, marked. Weighed as a product business: prior from its industry code (SEC 3651, Household Audio & Video Equipment); the filing read can change it. All three tenses have at least two readings, so the archetype blend applies as printed.

The grade, in three tenses

Headline 7.1 out of ten, 8 of 9 metrics filed and 1 estimated: past 7.5 out of ten, present 7.6 out of ten, future 6.0 out of ten. The past asks what it actually did, the present what it is doing right now, the future what it is set up to do next.

The nine metrics

  • Surviving crises (past): 8.9 out of ten. No warning events in its filings since 2017. 89th percentile among 9 sector filers. A production reading, recomputed from the filings on every data build (read from EDGAR 2026-10-12).
  • Track record (past): 6.1 out of ten. -2.7% a year over 10 filed years; profitable in 7 of 10. 61st percentile among 9 sector filers. A production reading, recomputed from the filings on every data build (read from EDGAR 2026-10-12).
  • Shareholder treatment (past): 8.3 out of ten. CrossAssetData estimate 8.3/10, confidence 35 of 100 (one part). 83rd percentile among 9 sector filers. A CrossAssetData estimate, not a filed reading: one part, confidence 35 of 100; a filing that carries the missing parts replaces this estimate with the filed reading.
  • Financial health (present): 7.2 out of ten. ROE 6%: 6¢ of profit per shareholder dollar. Leverage 26%: owes 26¢ per asset dollar. 72nd percentile among 9 sector filers. A production reading, recomputed from the filings on every data build (read from EDGAR 2026-10-12).
