The five investor questions
2021–2025 (latest 5 aligned FYs; v3 window cap 5): revenue $740M to $1.4B, increasing; diluted EPS -0.12 to 1.09, increasing.
Not enough years of gross-margin data to score pricing power.
Median ROIC 4.9%, above the 12% hurdle in 20% of years.
Net cash position — no leverage risk.
Owner earnings changed +15.6%/yr over up to the ten most recent annual observations, share count n/a.
The pricingPower component abstained: Not enough years of gross-margin data to score pricing power. The other four 20% weights were renormalized over the scored 80%.
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.
- $10.2M
- Unavailable — insufficient owner-earnings data
- Unavailable — insufficient growth-model data
- $70.47
- No price data
This zero-growth estimate assumes trailing owner earnings persist — unreliable for declining businesses. Flag status unavailable — four adjacent recent FY revenue observations are required.
Among the current top-score group, the median current price is 238% above the zero-growth estimate across 49 of the current top 50 companies by Moat Score with both values.

Scores are logged append-only and never overwritten — this record cannot be reconstructed retroactively, which is exactly why it’s worth keeping.
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.
The insider-filing service is temporarily unavailable, so no partial or guessed answer is shown for SHAK.
