Risk Summary
1 active- Sloan accruals — top decile[sloan_accruals_top_decile]Within-sector top decile of accruals / assets (Sloan 1996).
These flags keep the raw composite rank (project Rule 16) but forfeit the entered_top5 badge. Two of them — altman_distress and data_quality_input_corruption — additionally force a cautious recommendation; the others act as Top-5 disqualifiers without dictating the buy/hold/sell label on their own.
- Real Earnings Management (Roychowdhury 2006)[rem_suspect]
- Accruals momentum (Δ TATA > 0.05 over 3y)[accruals_momentum_high]
Rolls up Phase 4.5 earnings-manipulation defenses (Sloan · Beneish · Dechow · REM · restatement · late-filing · earnings- quality time-series) into a single 0-100 risk index. The soft composite penalty (max 10 pts) is informational only — the ranking uses the raw composite score per project Rule 16.
Fair price check
6 different valuation methods each estimate what KMT should be worth, then we compare to today's price.
- EV/EBITDAUndervaluedthinks it's a bargain — estimates $137.24, about 366% above today
- P/E multiplesUndervaluedthinks it's a bargain — estimates $123.37, about 319% above today
- P/B multiplesUndervaluedthinks it's a bargain — estimates $80.97, about 175% above today
- Graham (defensive)Fairthinks it's fairly priced — estimates $29.14, about 1% below today
- DCF (2-stage)Overvaluedthinks it's expensive — estimates $25.25, about 14% below today
- Residual IncomeOvervaluedthinks it's expensive — estimates $18.63, about 37% below today
How to read this: “Cheap” = method's fair price is at least 20% above today. “Fair” = within ±10–20%. “Pricey” = at least 10% below today. Outliers (values more than 5× or less than 0.2× today's price) are excluded.

Median of all applicable methods (current price $29.43). Per-method estimates + each method’s cheap/fair/pricey read are in the Fair price check above. Outliers above 5× or below 0.2× current price are excluded from the max but kept in the median. See methodology for the 6-method ensemble + 7 defenses.

Composite is the 8-pillar weighted score over quality, value, growth, momentum, health, profitability, technical, and risk. Sentiment + ML pillars are reserved for a later phase; until then their weight redistributes pro-rata. Fair price is the median of 6 valuation methods (Graham, P/E / P/B / EV-EBITDA multiples, RIM, DCF) with outliers above 5× current price excluded from the max. Risk-overlay flags annotate only — they suppress the entered-top-5 badge but do not modify the composite.
