Frequently asked

Is Sage (SGE.XLON) a high-quality business?+

Sage scores 64 out of 100 on Intrinsiqq's quality score, a weighted blend of 8 metrics each scored 0 to 100, which rates it a solid business on these measures. Recent figures include a 21.1% operating margin and a 17.4% return on invested capital.

The metric-by-metric breakdown is on this scorecard.

What does Sage's quality score measure?+

Intrinsiqq's quality score weighs profitability, returns on capital, revenue growth, and balance-sheet strength, using measures suited to banks, insurers and other financial companies (where free-cash-flow and operating-margin metrics do not apply), each computed from SGE.XLON's company 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 Sage scores well and where it falls behind.

What is Sage's return on invested capital (ROIC)?+

Sage earns about 17.4% 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 SGE.XLON's margins and growth on this scorecard to judge durability.

How profitable is Sage?+

Sage runs an operating margin of about 21.1% and a net margin of about 14.7%. Revenue has grown at roughly 8.0% 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 company filings, not investment advice.
