Revisions (93): Analysts have, on balance, been raising their forecasts.

Accruals (22): A large share of reported profit has not shown up as cash, or the balance sheet is expanding quickly — both tend to unwind.

Size (3): 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 KKR & Co., Inc. — and when they’d sell — is the membership.
