What drives TPGXL's score
Zyberno's analysis of TPGXL's fundamentals identifies the following key drivers. An ROE of 17.4% exceeds the 15% quality threshold, suggesting TPG Inc. efficiently converts equity into profit. ROIC of 12.3% is adequate but below the top-tier 15% threshold. A net margin of 13.2% reflects solid profitability and pricing power. A debt-to-equity ratio of 0.80x is elevated, meaning TPG Inc. relies more heavily on borrowed capital. An interest coverage ratio of 5.5x indicates comfortable debt servicing capacity. Revenue has grown at approximately 33.1% annually over the past five years, reflecting strong business momentum. A Piotroski F-Score of 6/9 indicates generally healthy financial signals.
The Brina Gap measures the difference between the growth a business can fundamentally sustain and the growth the market is already pricing in. TPG Inc.'s Brina Gap is +2.6% — the enterprise value implies a growth expectation that is broadly in line with what the business can actually deliver. Forward economics appear fairly priced.
Zyberno's score and valuation reflect the direct output of the model — business quality from fundamentals, margin of safety from owner earnings, Brina Gap from the reverse DCF. The numbers are not adjusted toward the current price, analyst ratings, or market sentiment. The score measures the quality of the business. The valuation measures the price you pay for it.

What makes a stock "high quality"?
A high-quality stock typically exhibits: strong returns on equity and invested capital (indicating competitive advantages), healthy profit margins, low debt levels, ample liquidity, consistent cash flow generation, and sustainable growth. We analyze 16 key metrics across four categories - Profitability (ROE, ROIC, margins), Financial Strength (debt, liquidity, coverage), Cash Flow Quality (FCF, OCF vs earnings), and Growth & Consistency (revenue/profit trends, Piotroski score) - drawing from the investment philosophies of Buffett, Graham, Lynch, and Munger.
How is the quality score different from a stock rating?
Our quality score measures business fundamentals - how well the company operates, generates profits, and maintains financial health. Unlike analyst "buy/sell" ratings, we don't tell you whether to purchase the stock. A company can have excellent quality (great business) but poor investment potential (if overpriced), or vice versa. For valuation analysis, see our Margin of Safety page.
Why do you use Owner Earnings instead of regular earnings?
Owner Earnings, a concept popularized by Warren Buffett, represents the true cash available to shareholders after maintaining the business. Unlike accounting earnings, which can be manipulated through depreciation schedules and accruals, Owner Earnings = Operating Cash Flow minus Maintenance Capital Expenditures. This gives a clearer picture of what a business actually generates for its owners. Learn more about TPGXL's Owner Earnings.
How often is the quality score updated?
Quality scores are recalculated whenever new financial data becomes available, typically after quarterly earnings reports. The underlying metrics (ROE, ROIC, debt ratios, etc.) come from company filings and are updated as soon as they're reported.
