Seven criteria, each scored 0 to 100 on a published scale, weighted into one number.
Average. Deere & Company scores higher than 44% of the 1,794 companies Ryufin scores.
Carried by capital allocation and cycle position, held back by valuation and the balance sheet.
Industrials median 53 · all companies 50
26% of the score, 32% here after data gaps
Deere & Company is valued at 26.7x its operating profit, including debt: past the 25 times where this criterion gives nothing.
Taken out: its 18% is shared by the others
Fewer than three years of operating profit and capital on file.
16% of the score, 20% here after data gaps
For every dollar of operating profit earned over 6 years, yearly profit grew by 4 cents.
14% of the score, 17% here after data gaps
How management spends the money: shares bought back or issued, and whether assets grow faster than the business they serve.
12% of the score, 15% here after data gaps
Today's operating margin of 13% is 0.86x its normal 16%: below its usual level, with room to recover. Normal is half the 10 year median, half the last four years, so a margin that has held is not taken for a peak.
8% of the score, 10% here after data gaps
What the debt weighs against the profit that has to carry it.
6% of the score, 7% here after data gaps
Whether the reported profit arrives as cash, and whether the accounts show the usual signs of stretching.
Each criterion earns 0 to 100 points on the scale drawn under it, and the RyuScore is their average weighted 26, 18, 16, 14, 12, 8 and 6. Scales bend in the company's favour between their ends, so an ordinary figure is never already near zero. For DE, return on capital could not be measured from the filings, so it is taken out and the remaining weights scale up.
Built from the company's annual and quarterly filings with the SEC and today's share price. Banks, insurers and property trusts are not scored: their debt is their raw material, so these yardsticks mean something else there. Figures as of 2026-08-02, latest annual report FY2025.
