Issuance (87): The share count has been shrinking and the company is not leaning on new borrowing.

Accruals (39): A large share of reported profit has not shown up as cash, or the balance sheet is expanding quickly — both tend to unwind.

Size (24): Larger than most of the companies we track — more scrutinised, less often mispriced.
