The five investor questions

2021–2025 (latest 5 aligned FYs; v3 window cap 5): revenue $114M to $157M, increasing; diluted EPS -0.73 to -0.72, increasing.

100

Median gross margin 74.4% over 6y, very stable.

0

Median ROIC -96.6%, above the 12% hurdle in 0% of years.

55

Net cash position — no leverage risk.

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.

7 years of fundamentals

The business, in plain English

CS Disco, Inc. booked $157M of revenue in FY2025 in the Technology sector and kept 74.9% of it as gross profit — a high-margin business by that measure. After every other cost, −28.3% of each revenue dollar reached the bottom line.

Across the filed record, revenue grew from $68.4M (FY2020) to $157M (FY2025) — about 18.0% a year compounded over 5 years.

It earned −35.1% on invested capital in the latest filed year, FY2025. Across the full 5-year measurable filed record, median ROIC was −96.6%. Over the v3 recent window (5 measurable filed years), median ROIC was −96.6%. The Returns on Capital filter above scores it 0/100.

LAW's latest filed year, FY2025, 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: Pricing Power is the strongest of the five filters (100/100) and Returns on Capital the weakest (0/100), which is how LAW lands at 51/100 — a Shallow 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.

Records still being gathered — partial as of retrieval Aug 11, 2026.

Trailing-12-month totals and the 90-day cluster result are withheld because this issuer walk is incomplete.

No reported Form 4 rows were captured for LAW; the incomplete walk cannot establish zero activity, zero counts, or a negative cluster result.
