The Businesswhat the company reports

Business & cash flow

OCF / assets 8.3%
FCF / revenue 27.2%
Gross margin 59.5%
ROIC 5.9%
Forward P/E 48.9

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).

Price vs Earnings growth

Forward EPS growth has outpaced trailing price return by +35.0pp

Confidence 95.0/100

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

Revenue Net incomeEPS (GAAP) (-1.26–0.72, own scale) Derived Q4

12 quarters to Q1 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.

History before 2024-09-30 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

StrategyCurrent Price Reasonable
Reference band 192.21 — 197.09
Protective stop 181.78 (Atr, 6.6% risk)
Support 192.69 (3 touches, 1.3% away)
Resistance 195.25 (0.1% away)

Takeaway The shares are nearer the ceiling than the floor: about 0.1% below 195.25, where sellers have turned up before, and 1.3% above 192.69, 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 6.6% 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)

LinesTenkan/Kijun BEAR | cloud twist BEAR
Cloud thickness76% percentile
Chikou spanAbove price from 26 periods ago
Weekly cloudPrice INSIDE the weekly cloud (context only, not scored)

Takeaway The stock is trading inside its cloud — a shaded band drawn from several of its own moving averages, currently 189.09 to 198.68. Inside the band those averages disagree with each other, so the indicator is not saying much either way. Its shorter-term averages agree with that. The band is unusually wide at the moment, so it marks a broad zone rather than a single level.

Trend context

PositionAbove trend
ExtensionExtended
Trend slopeFlat
Direction of travelDiverging from trend

Takeaway The share price is above the level its own longer-run trend suggests is fair, and that fair level is going sideways. The gap between the two has been widening. Being stretched this far above trend measures how much room there is to fall back — it does not say the stock will stop rising.

Range broken Up
Band 176.80 — 193.46

Takeaway Lately this share price has been swinging around inside a range roughly 9% wide, and it recently went unusually quiet — calmer than it has been 98% of the time. It has started moving again since, swinging about 1.9 times as widely as during that quiet spell, and it broke upwards. A stock that has been quiet tends to make its next move look big by comparison, simply because the recent bar was low.

Insider activity

ActivityNo filings in the window
Buy filings0
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.

  • Implied move 5.2% is 0.65x the ATR-expected 7.9% over 9d

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 5.2% in either direction by 2026-08-21.

Chain as at 2026-08-12. This is a risk read on whether a specific event is being priced — not a directional view.
