Revenue growth in the worst year on record

Revenue growth in the worst year on record

One of the 61 measures in Stock Scorer, under Durability — How predictable is the revenue, and how much of it is already committed?

How it is worked out

The lowest of the year-on-year revenue growth figures on file

Not the average and not the variability: the worst single year, which is how far sales fell the one time they did. A company that grew every year has a positive worst year and is not marked down for growing unevenly.

How to read it

−20% earns a 1, +10% a 10
