WMKWeis Markets, Inc.
Is the business good?
The checks split: nothing decisive, though earnings fully cash-backed (2.5×).
Operating profit is fully backed by cash. Conversion is improving vs a year ago.
Profits are tracking sales roughly one-for-one, limited operating leverage either way.
Efficiency-driven, thin margins turned over fast (the retail model). ROE 7% = margin × turnover × leverage.
Unless marked, from derived.

Where this answer is blind. The F-score rewards improvement, so an already-elite company can score mid-pack.
