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.

19 years of fundamentals

The business, in plain English

PVH Corp. booked $9.0B of revenue in FY2026 in the Consumer Discretionary sector and kept 57.5% of it as gross profit — a high-margin business by that measure. After every other cost, 0.3% of each revenue dollar reached the bottom line.

Across the filed record, revenue grew from $2.5B (FY2009) to $9.0B (FY2026) — about 7.8% a year compounded over 17 years.

It earned 2.3% on invested capital in the latest filed year, FY2026. Across the full 13-year measurable filed record, median ROIC was 7.8%. Over the v3 recent window (10 measurable filed years), median ROIC was 8.3%. The Returns on Capital filter above scores it 18/100.

The balance sheet carried $2.3B of total debt in FY2026 against $156M of owner earnings — roughly 14.8 years of owner earnings to retire it all. Balance-Sheet Safety scores it 12/100.

Put together: Pricing Power is the strongest of the five filters (92/100) and Balance-Sheet Safety the weakest (12/100), which is how PVH lands at 39/100 — 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.

Records still being gathered — partial as of retrieval Aug 19, 2026.

7 filings were skipped because the SEC primary document returned 404; the omission is disclosed and aggregates are withheld.

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 PVH; the incomplete walk cannot establish zero activity, zero counts, or a negative cluster result.

A filing source-event date will appear when a Form 4 row is captured.
