Peer median: the company's industry, or its sector when fewer than five covered companies share the industry.
Figures come from each company's SEC filings and end-of-day prices. Grades compare a company with the rest of its sector; they describe the data and are not the model's view - its ranking and the model portfolio are for subscribers.
Subscribers get the model's rank and expected return for every covered company, the reasoning behind each, and the Torvanta model portfolio's trades each trading day, sized and explained, at three risk levels.

Grades describe a company's reported data against its sector; they are not the model's view, change as data changes and can be wrong. Financial figures come from the company's SEC filings; returns include reinvested dividends. Past performance does not predict future results.
