Economic Moat

Evidence of durable competitive advantage in the filed financials (10 years of history).

Profit margins and economic moats, explained
Wide moat signalsMoat evidence score: 80/100

The filed history looks like a business competitors struggle to attack: high and steady margins, revenue that grows through cycles, and strong returns on capital.

Operating margin level100/100

64.2% average over the last 3 years

Operating margin stability54/100

Revenue durability69/100

Free-cash-flow consistency100/100

A moat can't be proven by numbers alone — this scores the evidence a durable advantage leaves behind (pricing power, consistency, returns on capital), computed the same way for every stock. Pair it with the business overview before concluding anything.

Dividend Safety

Can the payout survive a bad year? Scored from filed cash flow, earnings coverage, and the raise/cut record.

What to look for in a dividend stock
At RiskSafety score: 4/100

Coverage is weak, the payout was cut recently, or it's being financed rather than earned — treat the current yield as fragile.

Educational scenario model, not a forecast or investment advice. It starts from the latest annual revenue in SEC filings. By default, growth is trailing revenue growth (held between 3% and 45% a year), the net margin is the latest one (held between 3% and 50%, so a loss-making company is modeled with a small profit), and the Base case P/E runs from 60% to 100% of today's. Carrying recent growth forward five years can miss badly in either direction. Outputs are only as good as the assumptions. Growth, margin or P/E data is missing for this stock, so some starting values above are placeholders rather than measurements.

Key Risks

WINA — frequently asked questions

Is WINA a good stock to buy?

We don't give buy or sell advice. Review Winmark Corp's fundamentals, valuation, and 5-year financials on this page, then make your own decision — and consider a licensed professional.

Where does WINA's data come from?

Live price data plus the annual financials in Winmark Corp's SEC filings, refreshed automatically. Its fundamentals ratios aren't loaded yet, which is why it has no model rating.

How is the 5-year projection for WINA calculated?

It's a scenario model. It starts from the latest annual revenue and net margin in SEC filings, grows revenue at an assumed rate (trailing revenue growth by default), and applies a P/E range built around today's multiple to show the resulting share-price range. When a stock has no growth or P/E data, the starting values are placeholders. It's a tool for thinking, not a prediction.

Is this WINA analysis financial advice?

No. Everything on this page is educational research, not financial advice or a recommendation to buy or sell WINA. Always do your own research and consider a licensed professional.

Data notice. Fundamentals and financial statements are sourced from company filings (SEC EDGAR) and market-data providers; prices and market caps refresh on trading days and may be delayed.
