NOVO-B.CO — scored out of ten from its own filings

The five scores

DimensionWhat it asksScore
Quality How much of the revenue is really kept — and what did it take to earn it? 7.68
Valuation What does the price ask for what the company earns, owns and pays out? 8.5
Durability How predictable is the revenue, and how much of it is already committed? 0.5
Resilience Can the balance sheet absorb a bad year? 5.81
Growth Is the business getting bigger, and is it getting more profitable? 1.95

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.
