Is Sci Engineered Materials (SCIA) a high-quality business?+

The metric-by-metric breakdown is on this scorecard.
What does Sci Engineered Materials's quality score measure?+
Intrinsiqq's quality score weighs revenue and free-cash-flow growth, operating margins, return on invested capital, change in share count, and balance-sheet strength, each computed from SCIA's SEC filings rather than opinion or sentiment. A higher score means a more durable, capital-efficient business; it is not a buy or sell signal. Open each metric on this page to see exactly where Sci Engineered Materials scores well and where it falls behind.
What is Sci Engineered Materials's return on invested capital (ROIC)?+
Sci Engineered Materials earns about 16.1% on its invested capital, which is strong. ROIC measures how much profit a company generates per dollar put to work; sustained ROIC above its cost of capital is one of the clearest signs of a real competitive moat. Compare it to SCIA's margins and growth on this scorecard to judge durability.
How profitable is Sci Engineered Materials?+
Sci Engineered Materials runs an operating margin of about 10.7% and a net margin of about 9.3%. Revenue has grown at roughly 12.5% a year recently. High, stable margins usually point to pricing power and operating discipline. Margins are most telling next to growth and returns on capital, all of which feed this quality score. This is analysis from SEC filings, not investment advice.
