The Quality Score for ALV stands at 6.8 out of 10 as of October 17, 2026, which puts Autoliv Inc in the solid quality band. This band covers companies that do several things well but not everything, so the pillar detail below matters more than the headline. It rolls Autoliv Inc’s profitability, solvency, growth, efficiency and predictability into one number, each judged against the norms of its sector.
Among the 179 Consumer Discretionary companies with a published score, that ranks at the 85th percentile, among the stronger quarter of the group. For reference, the middle of the group scores 5.0 and a company needs 6.1 to reach its top quarter, which leaves Autoliv Inc well above the median.
On profitability, Autoliv Inc scores 6.5, an average reading. Its peers have a median of 5.1 across 176 Consumer Discretionary companies, which places it above them, at the 65th percentile. Profitability in the middle of the range is neither a moat nor a warning: margins and returns look like those of an ordinary business in this line of work.
Solvency scores 7.3 out of 10, which reads as strong. The median across 141 Consumer Discretionary companies is 5.9, so Autoliv Inc is above its peers on this pillar and ranks at the 68th percentile. Balance sheet strength like this rarely makes headlines, but it is what lets a company keep investing when credit gets expensive.
Growth scores 6.7 out of 10, which reads as average. The median across 149 Consumer Discretionary companies is 4.0, so Autoliv Inc is well above its peers on this pillar and ranks at the 81st percentile. Growth near the median is neither a reason to buy nor a concern, but it does mean the quality case rests more on the other pillars.
Autoliv Inc’s efficiency score is 6.7 out of 10 (average). Against a median of 6.2 among 170 Consumer Discretionary companies, that is above the group and the 64th percentile. Efficiency near the median says the operation is neither unusually lean nor unusually capital hungry.
Autoliv Inc’s predictability score is 7.1 out of 10 (strong). Against a median of 5.0 among 178 Consumer Discretionary companies, that is well above the group and the 86th percentile. Steady results like these are what make a long term view of the business easier to hold.
The five readings are evenly matched. The best, solvency at 7.3, is just 0.8 points above the weakest, profitability at 6.5, so no single pillar is carrying the score. Leading with solvency is a defensive strength: it protects the business more than it grows it. Weak profitability can be cyclical, so it helps to know whether margins are at a low point or a long-run level.
Autoliv Inc has no pillar below the median of Consumer Discretionary companies, which leaves little room to rise. Its exposure is to slippage instead, and profitability carries the most weight: one point less there would mean an overall of roughly 6.5 rather than 6.8. The weights add up to 100 points (profitability 25, solvency 20, growth 20, efficiency 15, predictability 20), and Autoliv Inc has a reading on every pillar.

No. Quality and valuation are separate questions, and a good business at the wrong price is still a bad purchase. Score the business here, then price it with a DCF you control.
