Academic risk and quality models computed from PANW's own filings and price history, not from analyst opinion.
Weak: only 3 of 9 fundamental-health tests pass, which is the range associated with deteriorating fundamentals.
Altman Z above the 2.99 safe threshold, so the model puts bankruptcy risk in its lowest band.
Beneish M below the -1.78 flag threshold, so the earnings-manipulation model finds nothing unusual in the accruals and margin trends.
Share of earnings coming from accruals rather than cash. Higher values historically precede weaker future returns.
Hidden Markov model fitted to two years of returns, separating bull, bear and sideways states by their own drift and volatility.
GARCH(1,1) 30-day annualised forecast, below the current 55.1% reading.
Fama-French 5-factor market beta. The five factors explain 23% of this stock's return variance; the rest is idiosyncratic.
The stock’s own historical valuation anchor, which is a fairer comparison than a sector average for a company with a persistent premium or discount.
