Moat

18 /100

Weak moat

How hard Aveanna Healthcare Holdings's competitive advantage looks for rivals to wear away, judged from 6 years of its own filings: returns on capital, pricing power, profit durability, cash conversion and discipline.

  • Returns on capital 0 / 20

    Net income has been a median -4.0% of total assets over 6 years.

  • Pricing power 12 / 20

    Gross margin has been a median 31.9%, moving by 0.9 percentage points (standard deviation) across 6 years.

  • Durability 0 / 20

    Operating margin has been a median 3.0%; its worst year was -31.3%.

  • Cash conversion 7 / 20

    Free cash flow was positive in 4 of 6 years, at a median 0.6% of revenue.

AI disruption exposure: Medium. In this industry, AI could change how the product is made or sold, without replacing the core asset. The score above includes a 5-point deduction for that exposure (23 before it).

A rules-based reading of reported figures, not a forecast and not investment advice. How the score is built: methodology.

Forecasts and guidance
