Moat63
Equal-weight average of four evidence-backed rubric grades (0–4), scaled to 100.
structural advantage · 3/4 · Detailed conversion, testing and training requirements, reinforced by typical six-year hosted and payment contracts, demonstrate meaningful incumbent switching friction. This supports a narrow advantage without establishing network effects or cost leadership.
durability · 2/4 · Multiyear contracts and implementation complexity support persistence, but renewal renegotiation and realized price compression limit evidence of durable economic protection across successive contract cycles.
customer dependency · 3/4 · Core-system conversion and ongoing processing and support indicate substantial operational embeddedness. Continued migration by existing clients supports relevance indirectly; standalone complementary products need not share the same dependency.
erosion resilience · 2/4 · Adjusted core growth and three years of rising revenue and operating income show current resilience. Renewal compression is realized erosion of pricing, while point-solution displacement remains a prospective risk.
Pricing power50
Equal-weight average of four evidence-backed rubric grades (0–4), scaled to 100.
realized pricing · 1/4 · Certain renewals have produced price compression, and contracts often include incentives that reduce transaction prices. These are observed weak pricing outcomes; their aggregate magnitude and any offsetting increases are undisclosed.
retention · 3/4 · Implementation friction and long contracts strongly support repeat demand, with continued existing-client cloud migration providing indirect operating corroboration. Management's high-retention assertion is supplementary; no numerical retention rate is inferred.
margin resilience · 3/4 · Revenue and operating income rose across fiscal 2024–2026, with operating income growing faster. More conservatively, quarterly revenue and expenses each grew 7.3% after the disclosed adjustments. This demonstrates operating resilience, while revealing no standalone proof of pricing strength.
contractual freedom · 1/4 · Long client contracts can limit supplier-cost pass-through, and renewal gives clients an opportunity to renegotiate prices and services. Exact escalator provisions are missing, but the disclosed constraints warrant a low grade.

Financial strength—
Missing required inputs: netDebtEbitGrade. Equal-weight grades: debt/FCF (1–8x), net debt/earnings before interest and tax (0–5x), interest service (1–12x), current ratio (0.75–2x). Earnings use reported operating income, or reported pretax profit plus reported interest expense when operating income is unavailable. Interest service uses earnings/interest expense; if unavailable, it uses reported operating cash flow/cash interest paid, without relabeling cash paid as accrued expense. Nonpositive cash flow/earnings score 0 for their service component; reported zero interest with a positive numerator scores 100. Net cash scores 100 for net leverage. Missing disclosures remain unavailable. General nonfinancial-company rubric, not a credit rating; exceptional and nonoperating gains are not normalized out. IFRS finance-cost and cash-flow classifications retain their reported scope.

Capital allocation—
Missing required inputs: operatingReturn. Three-year equal-weight indicators: pretax return on average invested capital (0–25%; equity + debt − cash, each year and its prior year), share-count growth (0–5%, lower better), share-based cost/revenue (2–20%, lower better), consolidated FCF/net income (0–1x). Return uses reported operating income or, if unavailable, EBIT calculated from reported pretax profit plus reported interest expense; exceptional/nonoperating gains are not normalized out. Share-based cost uses the reported cash-flow add-back or, if absent, separately reported recognized compensation expense; the latter never becomes an FCF adjustment. Nonpositive net income scores 0 for cash conversion; absent income/FCF stays unavailable. Nonpositive invested capital has no defined return and remains unavailable. Does not establish acquisition quality or buyback timing.

Management69
Equal-weight average of four evidence-backed rubric grades (0–4), scaled to 100.
capital discipline · 2/4 · Fiscal 2026 operating cash flow of $761.96 million supported development, equipment and acquisition spending, while share counts declined in the supplied interim comparison. However, $618.578 million of repurchases and dividends exceeded operating cash flow less $277.738 million of net investing outflows. Cash-flow growth benefited primarily from deferred taxes, and the extended cloud commitment adds obligations. Returns on these allocations remain unproven.
incentive alignment · 3/4 · Actual fiscal 2026 long-term grants allocated approximately 60% to performance shares with three-year vesting and relative shareholder-return, organic-growth and margin metrics. Annual bonuses also link to operating performance. This demonstrates meaningful alignment in compensation design, tempered by adjustment discretion and absent executive ownership and realized vesting evidence.
execution · 3/4 · Three-year revenue and operating-income growth, adjusted quarterly growth and continued cloud migration demonstrate successful operating execution. Attribution to management is indirect; forward-looking pipeline claims and projected acquisition synergies are unnecessary to this grade.
governance · 3/4 · Existing majority-independent board oversight, independent committees and chair, executive sessions and an adopted related-party policy establish substantive governance safeguards. The financial-statement audit adds reporting assurance; these disclosures do not establish exceptional governance outcomes.

We may experience increased costs for services from our third-party service providers due to inflation or other cost expansion, but because our client contracts typically have longer terms than our third-party service provider contracts, our ability to pass on those higher costs to clients may be limited.
