Value (88): The shares cost little relative to the profits and assets behind them — which can mean the market is too gloomy, or that the business really is in trouble.

Issuance (33): The company has been issuing shares or taking on financing, diluting existing holders.

Size (12): Larger than most of the companies we track — more scrutinised, less often mispriced.
