Read the GPRV chart

Historical and forecast indicators are converted on the GPRV radar chart into scores from 0 to 10, based on rankings relative to a universe of companies from the same industry sector. A low score (close to the center of the char) is a sign of underperformance, while a high score (near the edge of the chart) is a sign of outperformance.

The selected company area shape gives you a visual interpretation of the company strengths and weaknesses against the companies in the reference universe. The bigger the green area, the better from the investor point of view.

By default, another line chart is displayed and corresponds to the GPRV Analysis for the predefined set of comparable international companies, or for any other selected list. The differences between the charts give further information on the company strengths and weaknesses vs. the selected list and/or the second company.

Radar Chart

The radar chart features four quadrants, one for each GPRV category. In each quadrant, the scores for the underlying financial indicators are plotted as data points located on the corresponding axes, close to the center of the chart for low scores (weak areas) and near the edge of the chart for high scores (strong areas). For all categories, a high score for an indicator is a sign of attractiveness from the investor point of view. For the Risk and Value categories, this is achieved by inverting the scores as the higher the risk or the value, the less attractive the stock. When reading the chart, it is important to differentiate between historical indicators (identified as "Hist") and forecast indicators (identified as "Est" or "NTM"). It is also critical to check whether all financial indicators within a category convey a consistent message: spikes might be a sign of performance inconsistency across indicators.

When clicking on any indicator label on the radar chart, the indicator's absolute value and corresponding score are displayed on the data table for both the company and its peers.
