FUNDAMENTAL SCORE
50 / 100
Summary
W. R. Berkley Corporation has delivered steady top-line expansion: revenue compounded at 9.6% a year (CAGR, or compound annual growth rate) over three years while net income compounded at 8.8% a year. Latest annual revenue rose 7.8% YoY (year-over-year) and latest annual net income rose 1.3% YoY, a clear deceleration versus the three-year pace. The most recent quarter reported $446M in net income and declined QoQ (quarter-over-quarter) by 1.4%, indicating short-term softness within a multi-year growth record. Assets cover liabilities 1.28 times, a modest solvency cushion. The Piotroski F-Score of 4 on a 0 to 9 quality scale indicates mixed earnings quality. P/E (TTM) is 15.89 with EPS (TTM, Diluted) of $4.73, a valuation below the broad market average. The next earnings report must show whether net income growth reaccelerates and whether margins resume expansion.

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.
