9 years of fundamentals

The business, in plain English

VitaNova Life Sciences Corporation booked $2.7M of revenue in FY2025 in the Industrials sector and kept 59.2% of it as gross profit — a high-margin business by that measure. After every other cost, 32.0% of each revenue dollar reached the bottom line.

It earned 75.8% on invested capital in FY2025, with a median of 30.4% across 3 filed years. The Returns on Capital filter above scores it 88/100.

VNOV's filings don't disclose total debt in a form the methodology can use, so leverage is treated as unmeasured — never assumed to be zero.

The share count rose 614.6% between FY2017 and FY2025 — existing owners have been diluted over the record. Capital Discipline scores it 44/100.

Put together: Returns on Capital is the strongest of the five filters (88/100) and Capital Discipline the weakest (44/100), which is how VNOV lands at 73/100 — a Narrow 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.

Track record

How VitaNova Life Sciences Corporation’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 VNOV 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 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, VNOV 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.
