The five investor questions

Revenue & EPS trend70

2012–2025: revenue 6966.00 to 18790946.00, increasing; diluted EPS -0.01 to 0.00, increasing. 10 fiscal years were not jointly reported; CAGR uses the full 13-year elapsed span. Latest-filed diluted EPS remains usable for Business Trend, but an integer share-count change lacks enough evidence to confirm a comparable EPS basis; valuation growth therefore stays at 0%.

Pricing power93

Median gross margin 55.6% over 2y, very stable.

Returns on capital

Not enough years of ROIC data to score returns on capital.

Balance-sheet safety28

Net debt/EBITDA n/ax, interest coverage -1x.

Capital discipline19

Owner earnings -59.6%/yr, share count flat.

The returnsOnCapital component abstained: Not enough years of ROIC data to score returns on capital. The other four 20% weights were renormalized over the scored 80%.

This is a disclosed model range, not intrinsic value as fact.

16 years of fundamentals

The business, in plain English

First America Resources Corporation booked $18.8M of revenue in FY2025 in the Industrials sector and kept 55.1% of it as gross profit — a high-margin business by that measure. After every other cost, 0.0% of each revenue dollar reached the bottom line.

Across the filed record, revenue grew from $6966 (FY2012) to $18.8M (FY2025) — about 83.6% a year compounded over 13 years.

FSTJ's filings don't disclose total debt in a form the methodology can use, so leverage is treated as unmeasured — never assumed to be zero.

The share count rose 1254.7% between FY2011 and FY2025 — existing owners have been diluted over the record. Capital Discipline scores it 19/100.

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.

Gaps in a line mean that item isn’t in FSTJ’s filings for that year — the series is never interpolated or estimated. The Table view lists every filed value, including operating and net margins, total debt, and share count.

Track record

How First America Resources Corporation’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.

How to read this: each dot is what the engine would have scored FSTJ 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 indexed price path isn't available for this company yet; 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 reconstructed history shown, FSTJ did not rate Wide-moat in any year, so there is no wide-moat track record to report. That absence is itself the honest answer — we don’t manufacture a comparison where the rating never earned one.
