Risk Summary

Rank gates
  • Post-split share count unreliable[post_split_share_lag_unreconciled]
  • Sloan accruals — top decile[sloan_accruals_top_decile]Within-sector top decile of accruals / assets (Sloan 1996).
  • Net share issuance — top decile[net_issuance_top_decile]Top-decile net issuance over the trailing year (Pontiff-Woodgate 2008 / Daniel-Titman 2006).

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.

Manipulation index

Composite penalty: 3.30 pts (informational; rank uses raw composite)
Also fired — not rank-gating (3)
  • Accruals momentum (Δ TATA > 0.05 over 3y)[accruals_momentum_high]
  • Insider sell cluster (Cohen-Malloy-Pomorski 2012)[insider_sell_cluster]
  • C-suite unusual selling (Jeng-Metrick-Zeckhauser 2003)[c_suite_unusual_sell]

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.

Missing metrics
3(gross_profit, cost_of_revenue, research_and_development)

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.
