The Businesswhat the company reports
Business & cash flow
| OCF / assets | 4.3% |
|---|---|
| FCF / revenue | 36.6% |
| Gross margin | 91.9% |
| ROIC | 22.4% |
| Forward P/E | 29.8 |
This company does not report capital expenditure in the standard filing tag, so free cash flow cannot be derived and FCF/assets is not shown — common for asset managers, REITs, insurers and utilities. OCF/assets is shown instead, and it is the other measure Brown Bear's testing found to survive. Assets are from the latest annual filing (FY2025).

Reported earnings
Revenue Net incomeEPS (GAAP) (-0.09–1.01, own scale) Derived Q4
12 quarters to Q2 26. Revenue and net income share one scale, so the gap between them is the margin. The baseline is zero — bars below it are losses. The line is GAAP EPS — it spans every quarter shown, where the reported figure only goes back as far as the consensus feed does.

Share count
Diluted shares Return since the previous filing
| Direction | Flat — little net change |
|---|---|
| Diluted shares | 912.0M as at 2026-06-30 |
| Change over 1 year | +0.3% |
| Change over 3 years | -1.0% |
| Public float | $71.30bn as at 2025-06-30 (10-K) |
History before 2022-03-31 is not shown. The share count jumps at that date by a ratio no ordinary issuance produces — a split whose factor is not in Brown Bear's split store — so earlier figures are on a different basis and cannot be compared with today's.
The Pricewhat the chart is doingTop ↑
Price Levels
| Strategy | At Support Zone |
|---|---|
| Reference band | 80.56 — 80.56 |
| Protective stop | 72.58 (Structure, 9.9% risk) |
| Support | 74.97 (3 touches, 26.6% away) |
| Resistance | 111.98 (18.0% away) |
Takeaway The shares are nearer the ceiling than the floor: about 18.0% below 111.98, where sellers have turned up before, and 26.6% above 74.97, where buyers have stepped in before. That floor has held 3 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 9.9% out of pocket. That is all this figure means — an illustration of the risk, not a price to sell at.
Levels are computed from price structure. They describe where the engine locates support and extension — they are not targets, and not advice.
Ichimoku Cloud (Adaptive)
| Daily cloud | Price BELOW the cloud | periods 8/23/46 (89% of classic 9/26/52) |
|---|---|
| Lines | Tenkan/Kijun BEAR | cloud twist BEAR |
| Cloud thickness | 50% percentile |
| Chikou span | Not clear of price from 26 periods ago |
| Weekly cloud | Price ABOVE 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 95.85 to 99.49. 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.
Trailing returns

| 63 days | +21.3% |
| 126 days | +10.9% |
| 252 days | -16.5% |

Trend context
| Position | Far above trend |
|---|---|
| Extension | Extended |
| Trend slope | Rising |
| Direction of travel | Diverging from trend |
Takeaway Positive Kalman trend with moderate extension; constructive for momentum but watch entry risk.
Volatility
| State | No recent compression |
|---|---|
| Current band width | 24.5% of price |
| Recent tightest | 24.5% (0 sessions ago, narrower than 68.0% of its history) |
| Expansion since | 1.00× |
| Band | 83.75 — 107.10 |
Takeaway Lately this share price has been swinging around inside a range roughly 24% wide. That is normal for this stock, so there is nothing unusual to read into it either way.
Historical trends
History begins when the site started recording, not when the company listed, so a short line means a short record and nothing more.
Who's Tradingthe flow behind the priceTop ↑
Insider activity
| Activity | No filings in the window |
|---|---|
| Buy filings | 0 |
| Sell filings | 0 |
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
| Volume-price trend | Below its signal line |
|---|---|
| Confirmation | Marginal |
No absorption or distribution event in the recent window.
Takeaway The heaviest trading has been happening on days when the price falls: when large numbers of shares change hands, the price has tended to go down rather than up. That tells you where the weight of trading has been. It does not tell you what happens next, and it is not a signal to sell.
Options Positioning
No binary-event flag
HOOD: no binary-event flag. Near IV 57%, far IV 61% (ratio 0.95), implied move 7.2%.
| Implied volatility | 57% near (9d) · 61% far (65d) |
|---|---|
| Term structure | 0.95× near/far |
| Historical volatility | 60% |
| Implied vs historical | 0.96× |
| Implied move | ±7.2% by 2026-08-21 |
| Implied move vs ATR | 0.48× |
| Skew | Call Skew (0.91×) |
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 7.2% in either direction by 2026-08-21.

Position only. Brown Bear's RRG redesign programme is closed — five constructions, none beat an appropriate null — so this section describes where the name sits, and is not a signal.
