Formula Guide

🪮 Financial DNA Score — How it's Calculated

Scored 0–100 across four equal pillars (0–25 each). Higher = stronger business quality.

Profitability (0–25)
PAT Margin + EPS Growth
  • PAT >20% → 15pts | >10% → 10pts | >5% → 5pts
  • EPS growth >15% → 10pts | >8% → 7pts | >0% → 4pts
Returns (0–25)
ROE + ROCE + PE Sanity
  • ROE >20% → 10pts | >15% → 7pts | >10% → 4pts
  • ROCE >20% → 8pts | >15% → 5pts
  • PE <25x → 7pts | <35x → 5pts
Balance Sheet (0–25)
D/E + Current Ratio + Cash PAT
  • D/E=0 → 10pts | <0.5x → 7pts | <1x → 4pts
  • CR >1.5x → 8pts | >1.2x → 5pts
  • Cash PAT >1x → 7pts | >0.7x → 4pts
Efficiency (0–25)
Justified P/B + Dividend + Earnings Yield
  • P/B < justified P/B → 10pts
  • Div Yield >2% → 8pts | >1% → 5pts
  • Earnings Yield >5% → 7pts | >3% → 4pts
TCS example: ROE 51.8% (10) + ROCE 63% (8) + PE 15.6x (7) + PAT 18.5% (10) + D/E 0 (10) + CR 1.5x (8) + Div 1.8% (5) = 73/100 Strong
⚖️ Consensus Fair Value — How it's Calculated

Uses a sector-weighted composite — not a simple average — to prevent outlier models from distorting results.

Consensus = Σ(Model Value × Weight) ÷ Σ(Weights)

  • DCF — 50%
  • P/E Fair Value — 30%
  • Peter Lynch PEG — 20%

  • EV/EBITDA — 25%
⚠️ The Graham Number is shown for all stocks; for asset-light companies (ROE >40%, or ROE >20% with P/B >6) it reads low and is captioned as a rough floor. The Graham Formula is still excluded for those and for financial companies.

💧 Liquidity Stack — Formulas Explained

Three progressive ratios — each more conservative. Together they reveal the quality of short-term solvency.

Current Ratio
Current Assets ÷ Current Liabilities
  • Includes: Cash + Inventory + Receivables
  • Benchmark: >1.2x ✓ <1.0x ✗
Quick Ratio
(Current Assets − Inventory) ÷ Current Liabilities
  • Excludes inventory (may not liquidate quickly)
  • Benchmark: >1.0x ✓
Cash Ratio (Strictest)
Cash & Equivalents ÷ Current Liabilities
  • Only cash on hand — most conservative
  • Benchmark: >0.2x ✓
Stack Gap Reading
Gap = Current − Quick
  • Gap <0.2 → Low inventory dependency ✓
  • Gap >0.5 → Liquidity depends on selling stock
