FUNDAMENTAL RATING
FUNDAMENTAL SCORE
Neutral
77 / 100
Summary
Mettler Toledo reported mixed multiyear results: revenue compounded at 0.9% a year (CAGR, or compound annual growth rate) while net income compounded at -0.1% a year. Latest annual revenue rose 4.0% YoY (year-over-year) and net income rose 0.7% YoY, and the most recent quarter posted $232.9M in net income with a 37.4% QoQ (quarter-over-quarter) improvement. Assets cover liabilities only 0.99 times, meaning liabilities slightly exceed reported assets, which is a material balance-sheet concern. The Altman Z-score of 10.99 sits in the safe zone, which the model defines as values at or above 2.99. The Piotroski F-Score of 6 on a 0 to 9 quality scale is a mixed earnings-quality reading. The price-to-earnings ratio of 39.6 is approximately 1.6 times the S&P 500 average; the next report must show whether sequential margin and net income gains persist into annual comparables.

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.

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.
