IBM — scored out of ten from its own filings

Figures as at 2026-06-30, reported in USD. The newest fact in the filings is dated 2026-06-30, 55 days ago. Nothing on this page is advice.

The five scores

Dimension	What it asks	Score
Quality	How much of the revenue is really kept — and what did it take to earn it?	4.8
Valuation	What does the price ask for what the company earns, owns and pays out?	0.5
Durability	How predictable is the revenue, and how much of it is already committed?	6.89
Resilience	Can the balance sheet absorb a bad year?	2.78
Growth	Is the business getting bigger, and is it getting more profitable?	1.8

A dimension reading not measured means the filing does not carry the figures it needs. It is left out of the total rather than scored as though it were bad.

A measure missing from a list here could not be computed from this company's filings. It is left out rather than scored as though it were bad.

The figures, and where each came from

This is the part no other screener shows. Each figure below names the XBRL element it was read from, so it can be checked against the filing itself.

What to be careful about

presents no operating result; summed as revenue minus the costs it does tag (CostOfRevenue, SellingGeneralAndAdministrativeExpense, ResearchAndDevelopmentExpense). Checked against the company's own figures: the answer lands 1.0% of revenue from the 10,439M pre-tax profit it reports, which is its interest and other non-operating items
no market cap; set `market_cap` in overrides.yaml
no forward EPS estimate; growth rests on filings only. Analyst consensus is not published in XBRL, so it has to be fetched from a data provider or set by hand in overrides.yaml as `eps_growth_2y`
valuation DROPPED from the total: only 0 of 2 inputs could be computed (ev sales, ev owner earnings not tagged), so the score is not meaningful. Its weight is spread over the other dimensions
growth DROPPED from the total: only 2 of 4 inputs could be computed (margin trend, margin recent not tagged), so the score is not meaningful. Its weight is spread over the other dimensions
2 of 5 dimensions could not be measured (valuation, growth -- 45% of the model), so this row is not comparable with the others; its total rests on what was left
