No annual filing with both total assets and a cash-flow figure is cached for this name, so neither validated measure can be computed. FCF/revenue is shown instead, which is not the validated measure.

Price vs Earnings growth

Forward EPS growth has outpaced trailing price return by +118.2pp

Confidence 95.0/100

Takeaway Earnings growth is outpacing price — consistent with the stock not yet fully reflecting its improving forward estimates.

Price Levels

StrategyFair Value Anchor
Reference band 208.78 — 252.32
Protective stop 195.32 (Atr, 15.3% risk)
Support 242.31 (2 touches, 3.6% away)
Resistance 289.60 (15.4% away)

Takeaway The shares are nearer the floor than the ceiling: about 3.6% above 242.31, a price buyers have stepped in at before, and 15.4% below 289.60, where sellers have turned up before. That floor has held 2 times, which is how it was spotted. If someone bought at today's price and sold if it dropped through the level below, they would be about 15.3% out of pocket. That is all this figure means — an illustration of the risk, not a price to sell at.

Ichimoku Cloud (Adaptive)

LinesTenkan/Kijun BEAR | cloud twist BEAR
Cloud thickness71% percentile
Chikou spanNot clear of price from 26 periods ago
Weekly cloudPrice BELOW the weekly cloud (context only, not scored)

Takeaway The stock is trading below its cloud — a shaded band drawn from several of its own moving averages, currently 265.70 to 304.60. Being below it means the medium-term picture is pointing downwards, and that band is the first hurdle it would have to climb back through. Its shorter-term averages agree with that.

Band 226.29 — 294.80

Takeaway Lately this share price has been swinging around inside a range roughly 26% wide, and it recently went unusually quiet — calmer than it has been 85% of the time. When a stock goes quiet like this, its next move tends to look big by comparison. But quiet says nothing about which way it will go: Brown Bear tested calm-before-a-move as a reason to buy, and it did not work.

Insider activity

Sell filings0

Open-market Form 4 purchases and sales over the last 75 days, read from SEC EDGAR Form 4. Grants, option exercises, gifts and shares withheld for tax are excluded — they are compensation mechanics, not a decision to buy or sell. Reported Form 4 activity. Brown Bear tested insider cluster-buying as a return signal and rejected it as era-unstable; shown as fact, not signal.

Volume confirmation

No absorption or distribution event in the recent window.

Takeaway Slightly more shares change hands on rising days than on falling ones, but the gap is too small to read anything into.

Takeaway Insuring against a move in this stock costs less for the next few weeks than for the next few months, which is the normal state of affairs and suggests no particular date is worrying anyone. Options traders are positioned for a move of around 8.2% in either direction by 2026-09-04.

Detailed Scoring

Positive signals

  • Piotroski F-score 5/9 (+5.0)
  • Altman Z-score 3.00 (+3.0)
  • High earnings quality (accrual ratio 0.000) (+1.0)
  • Track 2: relative strength trend improving (+9.5)
  • Track 2: 20-day momentum acceleration 0.48 (+30.2)
  • Track 2: bullish DI spread 4.9 (+2.9)
  • Track 2: ADX 20.2 and flat (+4.8)
  • Track 2: relative momentum rank 0.94 (+13.8)
  • Track 2: Bollinger position 0.36 (+2.8)

Negative signals

  • Track 2: weak MACD histogram (-0.67)
  • Track 2: weak MACD line/signal structure (-7.0)
  • Track 2: negative MACD regime (-3.7)
  • Track 2: MACD slope deteriorating (-3.7)
  • Track 2: weak volume for momentum setup (0.83x average)
  • Track 2: Hidden Bearish MACD divergence
  • Track 2: price below EMA20 by 3.6%
  • Track 2: EMA20 slope deteriorating -3.7%
  • Track 2: MACD histogram deteriorating (-1.72)
  • Track 2: RSI deterioration/overheating 29.3, 5-day change -23.9
  • Track 2: weak VPT confirmation (0.00)
  • Track 2: price below EMA50 by 8.2%
  • Track 2: EMA50 slope deteriorating -3.3%
  • FCF margin unavailable: revenue missing from fundamentals cache
  • Track 2 structural exemption: structural score 9.0/100 below the 25 quality floor; this is an unowned speculative candidate, so the universal SELL gate was skipped and the Track 2 momentum/RRG grid was allowed to evaluate instead. Structural quality here is weak by design for this kind of candidate -- treat any resulting BUY as higher risk than a Track 1 signal.

Chase risk is not elevated for this name, so extension penalties are omitted from the negative signals above.
