Factor Intelligence
Cash Generators
A US ranking of companies producing real owner cash. We score cash yield, cash quality, durability, balance sheet strength, capital allocation, and market confirmation, then apply a value-trap brake.
The top decile currently contains 505 companies. The strongest reads combine owner earnings, cash conversion, manageable leverage, and enough market confirmation to reduce the chance of a cheap-but-declining trap.
Method
Not just cheap. Cash-rich without the trap.
The proprietary indicator is Sharemaestro Owner Earnings Yield: a conservative blend of free cash flow yield, FCF to market value, and earnings to price. The final score rewards businesses that convert profit into cash and penalises deterioration.
01Cash Yield
Owner earnings yield, FCF yield, earnings/price and EV/FCF.
02Cash Quality
FCF margin, cash conversion, accruals, ROIC and Piotroski strength.
03Durability
FCF growth, revenue growth, margin quality and earnings stability.
04Trap Brake
Weak momentum, leverage, shrinking revenue, poor conversion and distress signals reduce the score.
