Issuance (91): The share count has been shrinking and the company is not leaning on new borrowing.

Momentum (40): The shares have been drifting down relative to others.

Size (36): Larger than most of the companies we track — more scrutinised, less often mispriced.

The rank is the raw material. Whether the rules would actually own Appian Corp. — and when they’d sell — is the membership.
