Everus Construction Group earnings quality score
How much of the reported profit is backed by cash, and how many markers of managed earnings the filings show
Score60 / 100 · grade C · rank 702 of 1027
Everus Construction Group (ECG) scores 60 of 100 for earnings quality, grade C: rank 702 of 1027 companies and 168 of 287 in industrials. It loses the most points on accruals of +3.0% of assets, higher than 94% of companies, discretionary accruals of +4.2% of assets (modified Jones), larger than most, Montier C-score 2 of 5 checks failed. It earns full or near-full marks for adjusted and GAAP earnings agree, Dechow F-score 0.94 (normal). Revenue grew 33% in the year: fast growth raises accruals, the Beneish and Dechow scores and the C-score by construction, so a growing company scores lower than a steady one with the same accounting.

How the score is built
Eight published measures, each scored against the whole universe or on its own scale and weighted: accruals 20, discretionary accruals 10, Beneish M 15, Dechow F 15, Montier C 15, Piotroski F 10, the non-GAAP gap 10, smoothness 5. A measure that cannot be computed (Beneish for a bank, say) drops out and the rest is rescaled, so every company is scored on what applies to it.

Computed from the companies’ own XBRL filings (latest fiscal year) by published formulas; a statistical screen, not an audit or an accusation. A low score means the reported profit shows more of the markers of managed or low-quality earnings than its peers. Not investment advice.
