The five investor questions

55

2019–2023 (latest 5 aligned FYs; v3 window cap 5): revenue $385872 to $2.1M, increasing; diluted EPS -0.16 to 0.00, increasing. 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%.

31

Median gross margin 34.8% over 9y, variable.

0

Median ROIC -27.0%, above the 12% hurdle in 0% of years.

28

Net debt/EBITDA n/ax, interest coverage -0x.

44

Owner earnings changed trend unclear over up to the ten most recent annual observations, share count n/a.

Price vs. value if growth stopped today

A cautious baseline, not a price target: what the shares may support if normalized owner earnings simply hold steady.

This zero-growth estimate assumes trailing owner earnings persist — unreliable for declining businesses. The recent FY revenue series does not trigger the three-consecutive-declines flag.

Among the current top-score group, the median current price is 239% above the zero-growth estimate across 48 of the current top 50 companies by Moat Score with both values.

Model details under moat-index@3.0.0: zero-growth multiple 11.1×, capped-growth comparison at no more than 18×; 9% discount rate; high-end growth 0% (capped at 4%) using min(5y revenue CAGR, 5y diluted-EPS CAGR), clamped to 0%–4%; maintenance capex uses min(capex, D&A); abstain when D&A is unavailable. This is a disclosed model range, not intrinsic value as fact.

10 years of fundamentals

The business, in plain English

GEX MANAGEMENT INC. booked $2.1M of revenue in FY2023 in the Consumer Discretionary sector and kept 34.8% of it as gross profit — a moderate-margin business by that measure. After every other cost, 19.1% of each revenue dollar reached the bottom line.

Across the filed record, revenue grew from $907728 (FY2015) to $2.1M (FY2023) — about 11.0% a year compounded over 8 years.

GXXM's latest filed year, FY2023, doesn't disclose total debt in a form the methodology can use, so current leverage is treated as unmeasured — never assumed to be zero.

Put together: Business Trend is the strongest of the five filters (55/100) and Returns on Capital the weakest (0/100), which is how GXXM lands at 32/100 — a None moat.

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.

Insider activity

Form 4 reports mix P/S market or private transactions with compensation-plan mechanics. Activity casually described as “insider selling” can include compensation mechanics; awards, tax withholding, and option exercises are shown by their exact filed class here, never collapsed into “Bought” or “Sold.”

These are disclosed filing facts and arithmetic aggregates, not a signal or verdict.

This machine-readable surface covers SEC ownership filings from 2003; it does not represent earlier paper-era records.
