Analysis Workflow

Step 1 — Data Validation

Confirm all API calls returned success: true. Note which data provider served each call (source field). Flag any stale data (cached > 24h for quotes).

Step 2 — Business Quality Assessment

Score each dimension 1–5:

Dimension	Signals to Look For
Competitive Moat	Market leadership, pricing power, switching costs, network effects
Management Quality	Capital allocation history, FCF conversion, debt management
Revenue Quality	Recurring/subscription vs one-time, customer concentration
Growth Trajectory	YoY revenue growth trend (accelerating/decelerating/stable)

Calculate a composite Business Quality Score (BQS) = average of the four dimensions.

Step 3 — Financial Health Scorecard

Compute and interpret:

Metric	Formula	Benchmark
Gross Margin	grossProfit / revenue	Industry-specific
Operating Margin	operatingIncome / revenue	> 15% healthy
FCF Margin	freeCashFlow / revenue	> 10% excellent
Net Debt / EBITDA	(totalDebt − cash) / EBITDA	< 2x conservative
ROE	netIncome / totalEquity	> 15% strong
FCF Yield	freeCashFlow / marketCap	> 4% attractive
Current Ratio	currentAssets / currentLiabilities	> 1.5 healthy

Flag any metric outside healthy range with a ⚠️ symbol.

Step 4 — Valuation Analysis

Calculate:

Ratio	Formula	Context
P/E (TTM)	price / EPS_TTM	vs sector average
Forward P/E	price / EPS_NextYear_estimate	vs 5-yr historical avg
EV/EBITDA	(marketCap + netDebt) / EBITDA	< 15x value zone
P/FCF	marketCap / freeCashFlow	vs growth peers
PEG Ratio	P/E / EPS_3yr_growth	< 1.0 undervalued

Classify valuation as: Deep Value / Fair Value / Premium / Stretched

Provide a range-based fair value estimate using at least two methods (DCF implied from FCF yield, and P/E reversion to sector mean).

Step 5 — Earnings Quality & Analyst Coverage

Analyze earnings history (last 4 quarters):

Beat rate: percentage of quarters beating EPS estimates
Average surprise magnitude (positive/negative)
Revenue trend vs EPS trend (divergence signals accounting risk)

Analyst consensus summary:

Consensus rating label (Strong Buy / Buy / Hold / Underperform / Sell)
Mean price target vs current price (implied upside/downside %)
Breadth: number of analysts covering the stock
Target price range (bull case vs bear case)

Step 6 — Risk Identification

Systematically identify:

Balance sheet risk: leverage, debt maturity, liquidity
Earnings risk: customer concentration, cyclicality, margin pressure trends
Macro risk: interest rate sensitivity, FX exposure, commodity input costs
Regulatory/ESG risk: industry-specific regulatory environment
Valuation risk: how much multiple compression would hurt total return

Step 7 — Investment Verdict

Based on all data, output:

Rating: STRONG BUY / BUY / HOLD / AVOID / SELL
12-Month Price Target: derived from valuation analysis (base case)
Bull Case / Bear Case: target under favorable / adverse scenario
Confidence Level: HIGH / MEDIUM / LOW (based on data completeness and earnings predictability)
