The Quality Score for CAG stands at 4.5 out of 10 as of October 17, 2026, which puts Conagra Brands Inc in the mixed quality band. In this band one or two pillars are usually holding the score up while others drag it down, which the breakdown below makes visible. It rolls Conagra Brands Inc’s profitability, solvency, growth, efficiency and predictability into one number, each judged against the norms of its sector.
Among the 71 Consumer Staples companies with a published score, that ranks at the 25th percentile, just below the middle of the group. For reference, the middle of the group scores 5.8 and a company needs 6.8 to reach its top quarter, which leaves Conagra Brands Inc below the median.
On profitability, Conagra Brands Inc scores 1.4, a weak reading. Its peers have a median of 4.7 across 71 Consumer Staples companies, which places it well below them, at the 7th percentile. A low reading here is the first thing to explain: it is the pillar most closely tied to whether the business creates value at all.
Solvency scores 8.5 out of 10, which reads as strong. The median across 65 Consumer Staples companies is 6.9, so Conagra Brands Inc is well above its peers on this pillar and ranks at the 83rd percentile. Strong solvency points to a balance sheet that can carry its debts comfortably, with interest well covered and little pressure from creditors.
Conagra Brands Inc’s growth score is 3.9 out of 10 (weak). Against a median of 4.0 among 67 Consumer Staples companies, that is in line with the group and the 44th percentile. Weak growth means revenue and earnings have been flat or shrinking against peers, which can be cyclical or a sign of a market that is maturing.
Efficiency has no score for Conagra Brands Inc. Fewer than half of the pillar’s metric weight could be computed from the reported statements, so it is drawn as a dash and left out of the overall rather than counted as a zero. For context, the median efficiency score across 68 Consumer Staples companies is 6.7. Without it the overall cannot say how well reported profit turns into cash.
Conagra Brands Inc’s predictability score is 5.2 out of 10 (average). Against a median of 6.1 among 71 Consumer Staples companies, that is below the group and the 37th percentile. Consistency near the median is typical, and it is worth checking whether the swings came from the business itself or from one-off items.
The gap between Conagra Brands Inc’s best and worst pillar is wide: solvency at 8.5 against profitability at 1.4, 7.1 points apart. An average of two readings this different deserves a closer look than the headline number. 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.
The pillar with the most room to move the score is profitability. If it rose to the median of Consumer Staples companies, 4.7, Conagra Brands Inc’s overall score would go from 4.5 to about 5.5. With one pillar unscored, the overall rests on 85 of the 100 weight points, spread across the four pillars that could be measured (the full set is profitability 25, solvency 20, growth 20, efficiency 15, predictability 20).

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.
