How these scores work

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.

Every weight and threshold is on the methodology page. New to this? Start with how to tell if a dividend is safe.
