The Trillion Score: 598
Exponential Success Score
Built on over $200 trillion of sworn revenue, 13 years of data, 770,002 figures. Sealed by Edgarette.
How The Trillion Score works. We read eight measures of success from Emerson Electric's own SEC filings and test each one against the public companies in its field, here electronic & other electrical equipment. The longer and fuller the record, the more weight those results carry. A model built on past filings then turns them into the odds of thriving, which means outgrowing the field for three years without a severe decline. A score of 500 is about average, and every 100 points doubles the odds. Every company is ranked on this same scale.
What it says here. At 598, Emerson Electric's odds of thriving come to 53%, against about 37% for the typical filer. It meets 7 of 8 success points.
What the score means
The higher the score, the more often companies went on to thrive. At this level, about 44 of every 100 did.
