The five investor questions

46

2023–2025 (latest 3 aligned FYs; v3 window cap 5): revenue $3.6B to $3.9B, increasing; diluted EPS 3.91 to 1.49, decreasing.

59

Median gross margin 34.6% over 3y, very stable.

—

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

72

Net debt/EBITDA 2.1x, interest coverage 24x.

20

Owner earnings changed -38.2%/yr over up to the ten most recent annual observations, share count n/a.

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%.

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.

Above value if growth stopped todayBelow value if growth stopped today
43% above value if growth stopped today
$594M
$41.58
$41.58
$59.42
43% above value if growth stopped today

What today’s price assumes: owner earnings growing ~7%/yr over 5 years. The zero-growth estimate assumes owner earnings stay flat (0% growth).

How to read this

We solve for the constant annual change in owner earnings that would make the five-year zero-growth estimate equal today’s price. This keeps the existing model inputs and calculation unchanged; it is an expectations lens, not a forecast.

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 255% above the zero-growth estimate across 49 of the current top 50 companies by Moat Score with both values.

4 years of fundamentals

The business, in plain English

Solstice Advanced Materials Inc. booked $3.9B of revenue in FY2025 in the Materials sector and kept 32.2% of it as gross profit — a moderate-margin business by that measure. After every other cost, 6.1% of each revenue dollar reached the bottom line.

The balance sheet carried $2.0B of total debt in FY2025 against $237M of owner earnings — roughly 8.3 years of owner earnings to retire it all. Balance-Sheet Safety scores it 72/100.

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.

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 SOLS.

Track record

How Solstice Advanced Materials 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.

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 indexed price path isn't available for this company yet; 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, SOLS 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.

Common questions about SOLS

Does Solstice Advanced Materials Inc. have an economic moat?
Based on its FY2025 SEC filings, the Moat Index scores Solstice Advanced Materials Inc. (SOLS) 49.2 out of 100 — a Shallow moat. The five questions behind that score begin at 20% each; if exactly one genuinely lacks data, the other four weights are renormalized and disclosed. revenue and EPS trend 46, pricing power 59, returns on capital not measurable from the filings, balance-sheet safety 72, capital allocation 20.
Is SOLS trading below the conservative owner-earnings estimate?
The value if growth stopped today — a zero-growth baseline — is $41.58 per share. It capitalizes normalized owner earnings at a 9% rate and assumes 0% growth. Versus a recent price of $59.42, that is 43% above value if growth stopped today. The model also publishes a capped-growth comparison, but the zero-growth estimate is the cautious baseline. It assumes trailing owner earnings persist and is unreliable for declining businesses. This is an educational estimate from primary SEC filings, not intrinsic value as a fact or investment advice.
How has SOLS's Moat Score changed over time?
The record logs 32 readings since Jul 18, 2026; the latest reads 49.2 out of 100 (shallow moat). No tier changes on record yet. (Methodology or normalizer upgrades on Jul 20, 2026, Jul 23, 2026, Jul 26, 2026 re-based the score; readings across versions aren't compared.) The history is append-only — readings are only ever added, never rewritten.
