FUNDAMENTAL RATING
FUNDAMENTAL SCORE
77 / 100
Summary
Seagate Technology's headline growth is distorted by an extreme annual outlier: one recent year pushes three-year figures higher and materially affects the reported CAGR (compound annual growth rate). Revenue compounded at 18.2% a year, and the latest annual revenue rose 34.1% YoY (year-over-year) while net income rose 116.7% YoY; stripping the outlier yields a less consistent multi-year picture. The most recent quarter reported $748M in net income and improved QoQ (quarter-over-quarter). Assets cover liabilities 1.28 times, an adequate balance-sheet cushion. The Altman Z-score is 13.22, well above the model thresholds (distress below 1.81; safe above 2.99). A Piotroski F-Score of 6 on a 0 to 9 quality scale is a mixed earnings-quality reading. The next report must show whether annual net income growth remains elevated without the outlier year.

Data Source
This dashboard applies a modified 9-signal Piotroski F-Score (Piotroski, 2000) and Altman Z-Score models. Fundamental filing data is sourced from the SEC's EDGAR XBRL database (primary), with API Ninjas as backup for freshly-filed 10-Ks not yet in SEC. Live price, market cap, and EPS display use Tiingo end-of-day data. This page is informational analysis, not investment advice. See Financial Disclaimer.

Formula & Methodology
Trend inputAnnual revenue and net income year-over-year direction contributes 20% of the score.
Piotroski inputModified 9-test Piotroski F-Score (Quality) contributes 40% of the score.
Altman inputAltman Z-Score (Distress) contributes 40% of the score.
Rating ruleFormula: Trend (20%) + Piotroski F-Score (40%) + Altman Z-Score (40%). Trend blends annual revenue and net income year-over-year direction. Piotroski is the modified 9-test variant (7 classic + 2 cash-flow tests). Altman uses the 1968 Z-Score with Safe/Grey/Distress zones. Combined blend uses ±0.45 thresholds: Bullish at +0.45 or higher, Bearish at -0.45 or lower, Neutral in between. Missing sub-signals count as Neutral (0) and weights are not re-normalized — a company with fewer available signals must earn its rating from stronger reads on the remaining pillars.
