Modine Manufacturing earnings quality score
How much of the reported profit is backed by cash, and how many markers of managed earnings the filings show
Score53 / 100 · grade C · rank 836 of 1027
Modine Manufacturing (MOD) scores 53 of 100 for earnings quality, grade C: rank 836 of 1027 companies and 119 of 141 in consumer-disc. It loses the most points on Dechow F-score 2.21 (substantial), Montier C-score 5 of 6 checks failed, adjusted earnings 58% below GAAP. It earns full or near-full marks for profit steadier than cash flow (smoothness 0.55), Beneish M-score -2.20: in the grey zone, discretionary accruals of +0.0% of assets (modified Jones), smaller than most. Revenue grew 35% 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.
