Moat

75 /100

Strong moat

How hard Mcgrath Rentcorp's competitive advantage looks for rivals to wear away, judged from 10 years of its own filings: returns on capital, pricing power, profit durability, cash conversion and discipline.

  • Returns on capital 9 / 20

    Net income has been a median 6.7% of total assets over 10 years.

  • Pricing power 16 / 20

    Gross margin has been a median 46.5%, moving by 1.2 percentage points (standard deviation) across 10 years.

  • Durability 18 / 20

    Operating margin has been a median 24.3%; its worst year was 20.4%.

  • Cash conversion 20 / 20

    Free cash flow was positive in 10 of 10 years, at a median 26.8% of revenue.

  • Discipline 17 / 20

    The diluted share count rose 0.3% over five years; stock-based pay has been a median 1.1% 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 (80 before it).

Source: SEC EDGAR XBRL company facts (US and foreign periodic filings); column headings link to the filing. EBITDA is operating income plus depreciation and amortisation. Free cash flow is cash from operations minus capital spending. Growth is left blank when last year's figure was a loss or under 2% of revenue. Share counts and EPS are restated for stock splits. A dash means the company didn't report the figure.
