10 years of fundamentals

The business, in plain English

Coronado Global Resources Inc. booked $1.9B of revenue in FY2025 in the Materials sector and kept 21.8% of it as gross profit — a moderate-margin business by that measure. After every other cost, −22.2% of each revenue dollar reached the bottom line.

Across the filed record, revenue grew from $768.2M (FY2017) to $1.9B (FY2025) — about 12.3% a year compounded over 8 years.

It earned −15.2% on invested capital in FY2020, with a median of 22.0% across 4 filed years. The Returns on Capital filter above scores it 91/100.

The balance sheet carried $686.7M of total debt in FY2025.

The share count rose 73.5% between FY2018 and FY2025 — existing owners have been diluted over the record. Capital Discipline scores it 24/100.

This breakdown is generated from the filed numbers and sub-scores above — no outside narrative, no estimates. Where a filing doesn’t disclose an input, the sentence that would need it is omitted instead of guessed.

Moat Score history

Moat Score over timeLast scored reading of each day, on the 0–100 scale

No composite readings yet — CODQL’s filings don’t give the engine enough comparable data to score, and we log that honestly instead of guessing a number.

Tier changesSame-methodology crossings of the Wide / Narrow / Shallow bars

None yet — CODQL hasn't been rated on any logged capture, so there's no tier to change from.

Scores are logged append-only and never overwritten — this record can’t be backfilled, which is exactly why it’s worth keeping.

Track record

How Coronado Global Resources Inc.’s moat rated in each of the years we can reconstruct from its filings — scored only on what was knowable at the time — and what its price and returns did afterward. The score never saw a price; the two are joined only in hindsight, for education, not as a signal.

As-of Moat Score (dot colored by tier)Indexed price (total-return (dividends reinvested))Rated Wide-moat that year

How to read this: each dot is what the engine would have scored CODQL on that December 31; the line below is its total-return price path (dividends reinvested) in the years since.

Two tracks, one timeline: the score has its own 0–100 scale (top), the price its own 100-based scale (bottom) — never a shared axis. The price path is a total-return (dividends reinvested) index built from the same data the forward returns use; gaps in the score line are years with no reconstructed rating (see the table for why). The Table view carries every value.

What followed, in the years it rated Wide

In the 1 year CODQL rated Wide-moat (2020), the median forward total return that followed — measured only after each year’s filings were public — was:

  • 1 year −99% vs the S&P 500’s 30% (price basis) · median over 1 year
  • 3 years 93% vs the S&P 500’s 28% (price basis) · median over 1 year
  • 5 years −65% vs the S&P 500’s 85% (price basis) · median over 1 year

These are medians computed from the data, not a claim about any one year. The company figures are total returns (dividends reinvested); the S&P 500 is the price-only ^GSPC index, which excludes dividends and so understates the index — the gap flatters the company. A quality rating is not a return forecast, and past returns don’t predict future ones. Educational only, not investment advice.

Not ranked — CODQL doesn’t have enough comparable filing data for a composite score, so we don’t place it on the board.

Common questions about CODQL

Does Coronado Global Resources Inc. have an economic moat?
We don't publish a Moat Score for Coronado Global Resources Inc. (CODQL): its SEC filings don't provide enough comparable data to score every filter, and the Index records that gap rather than a guessed number. Missing inputs: balance-sheet safety.
Is CODQL stock trading below its intrinsic value?
Against a deliberately conservative owner-earnings model (9% discount rate, 0% assumed growth, capped at 4%), estimated intrinsic value is $10.34 per share versus a recent price of $0.18 — 98% below value. This is an educational estimate computed from primary SEC filings, not investment advice.
How has CODQL's Moat Score changed over time?
The record logs 5 readings since Jul 17, 2026, none with a composite — CODQL hasn't had enough comparable filing data to score. No tier changes on record yet. The history is append-only — readings are only ever added, never rewritten.
