On the filings behind it, Celanese Corp. Common Stock earns 2.3 out of 10 for business quality as of October 19, 2026. That is low quality on our scale. A low reading means the reported numbers show weakness on several pillars at once, which is a reason to understand the business before anything else. The figure is a weighted average of five pillars, each scored from 0 to 10 against sector-aware benchmarks from reported statements.
Among the 77 Materials companies with a published score, that ranks at the 11th percentile, in the bottom quarter of the group. The median across the group is 4.4, and the top quarter begins at 6.2, so Celanese Corp. Common Stock is well below the typical company here.
Profitability scores 1.3 out of 10, which reads as weak. The median across 74 Materials companies is 4.4, so Celanese Corp. Common Stock is well below its peers on this pillar and ranks at the 28th percentile. Weak profitability means the business converts less of its sales and capital into profit than its peers, which can come from thin pricing power, high costs or a temporary squeeze.
Solvency scores 1.3 out of 10, which reads as weak. The median across 66 Materials companies is 6.7, so Celanese Corp. Common Stock is well below its peers on this pillar and ranks at the 2nd percentile. Weak solvency means debt is heavy relative to earnings or cash flow, which makes the business more sensitive to interest rates and to any fall in profits.
Growth scores 2.4 out of 10, which reads as weak. The median across 57 Materials companies is 3.2, so Celanese Corp. Common Stock is below its peers on this pillar and ranks at the 38th percentile. A low growth score is common for large, established companies and is not a verdict on quality on its own, but it limits how the business can compound.
On efficiency, Celanese Corp. Common Stock scores 2.1, a weak reading. Its peers have a median of 5.2 across 71 Materials companies, which places it well below them, at the 10th percentile. Weak efficiency means more capital is tied up to produce each unit of output, or less of reported profit is arriving as cash.
On predictability, Celanese Corp. Common Stock scores 4.4, an average reading. Its peers have a median of 4.5 across 76 Materials companies, which places it in line with them, at the 47th percentile. Middling predictability suggests some volatility in the record, enough to read the other pillars with a little caution.
The profile is uneven. Predictability leads at 4.4 while profitability trails at 1.3, a gap of 3.1 points, so the overall averages a clear strength against a clear soft spot. A predictability lead means consistency is the business’s strongest trait, which makes its other readings easier to trust. A profitability shortfall is the one most worth understanding, since it bears directly on whether the business creates value.
Of everything that could lift Celanese Corp. Common Stock’s score, solvency matters most. Bringing it up to the 6.7 median of Materials companies would take the overall from 2.3 to roughly 3.4. All five pillars could be scored, so the overall uses the full set of weights out of 100: profitability 25, solvency 20, growth 20, efficiency 15, predictability 20.
