The five investor questions

Revenue & EPS trend58

2014–2023: revenue 4893.00 to 1136000.00, increasing; diluted EPS -0.00 to 0.00, increasing. 4 fiscal years were not jointly reported; CAGR uses the full 9-year elapsed span. Diluted EPS was derived from net income and diluted weighted-average shares in 5 years where the direct tag was absent. 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 power30

Median gross margin 34.0% over 7y, variable.

Returns on capital

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

Balance-sheet safety28

Net debt/EBITDA n/ax, interest coverage -12x.

Capital discipline42

Owner earnings trend unclear, share count growing (dilution).

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.

12 years of fundamentals

The business, in plain English

Right On Brands, Inc. booked $1.1M of revenue in FY2023 in the Consumer Discretionary sector and kept 53.3% of it as gross profit — a solid-margin business by that measure. After every other cost, 0.8% of each revenue dollar reached the bottom line.

Across the filed record, revenue grew from $4893 (FY2014) to $1.1M (FY2023) — about 83.2% a year compounded over 9 years.

The balance sheet carried $705275 of total debt in FY2021. Balance-Sheet Safety scores it 28/100.

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.

Track record

How Right On Brands, 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 RTON 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 reconstructed history shown, RTON 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.
