Quality (91): The business earns solid, repeatable profits on what it owns.

Accruals (38): A large share of reported profit has not shown up as cash, or the balance sheet is expanding quickly — both tend to unwind.

Size (26): 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 AZZ, Inc. — and when they’d sell — is the membership.
