FUNDAMENTAL RATING
FUNDAMENTAL SCORE
Bullish
62 / 100
Summary
Charles Schwab Corporation reported net income that rose 49.0% YoY (year-over-year) in the latest annual filing, a material acceleration versus its three-year net income CAGR (compound annual growth rate) of 7.21%. The most recent quarter posted $2.8B in net income and improved QoQ (quarter-over-quarter) by 12.9%, which is consistent with the annual acceleration. Revenue accelerated as well, rising 22.0% in the latest year after a 4.83% three-year CAGR. Assets cover liabilities 1.11 times, a thin balance-sheet cushion for a financials firm. The Piotroski F-Score of 6 on a 0 to 9 quality scale is a mixed earnings-quality reading. The next earnings report must show whether quarterly net income growth and margins sustain beyond the recent easier comparison base.

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.

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.
