FUNDAMENTAL SCORE
39 / 100
Summary
Aflac has shifted from multi-year growth into decline: revenue compounded at -4.2% a year (CAGR, or compound annual growth rate) and net income compounded at -4.6% a year. Latest annual results show revenue down 9.3% YoY (year-over-year) and net income down 33.0%, and the most recent quarter reported $825M in net income, a 19.0% QoQ (quarter-over-quarter) decline. Assets cover liabilities 1.34 times, which provides an adequate solvency cushion at the company level. The Piotroski F-Score of 3 on a 0 to 9 quality scale is a weak earnings-quality reading. The price-to-earnings ratio of 17.6 is below the S&P 500 average, reflecting a lower-growth valuation. The next report must show whether core operating earnings stabilize sequentially and whether annual net income stops contracting.

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.
