The Safety Score weighs free-cash-flow payout (4-year average), balance-sheet strength, profit history, earnings payout, the dividend growth streak and earnings stability. The Strength Score weighs margin stability, return on equity, dividend growth, total return and today's yield versus the stock's own 5-year average.
