Revisions (97): Analysts have, on balance, been raising their forecasts.

Accruals (31): A large share of reported profit has not shown up as cash, or the balance sheet is expanding quickly — both tend to unwind.

Size (15): Larger than most of the companies we track — more scrutinised, less often mispriced.
