Crocs Inc (CROX) has a Lemma Quality Score of 6.0 out of 10 as of October 17, 2026, which reads as solid quality. A solid reading is a respectable business with clear strengths and at least one area that falls short of the best in its field. Five pillars feed it, and every one of them is computed from what the company reported rather than from its share price.
Ranked with the 179 Consumer Discretionary companies Lemma publishes, the score sits at the 71st percentile, in the upper half of the group, short of the top quarter. A typical company in the group scores 5.0, and the best quarter starts from 6.1. Crocs Inc is above that typical reading.
Crocs Inc’s profitability score is 9.2 out of 10 (strong). Against a median of 5.1 among 176 Consumer Discretionary companies, that is well above the group and the 94th percentile. High profitability means each unit of capital and of sales is turning into more profit than at most of its peers, which is usually the first sign of pricing power or a cost advantage.
On solvency, Crocs Inc scores 7.5, a strong reading. Its peers have a median of 5.9 across 141 Consumer Discretionary companies, which places it well above them, at the 74th percentile. Balance sheet strength like this rarely makes headlines, but it is what lets a company keep investing when credit gets expensive.
On growth, Crocs Inc scores 4.6, an average reading. Its peers have a median of 4.0 across 149 Consumer Discretionary companies, which places it above them, at the 57th percentile. Average growth reflects a business expanding at roughly the pace of its sector, without a clear acceleration or decline.
Efficiency scores 3.0 out of 10, which reads as weak. The median across 170 Consumer Discretionary companies is 6.2, so Crocs Inc is well below its peers on this pillar and ranks at the 11th percentile. A low efficiency score is worth reading alongside profitability: earnings that do not convert into cash are worth less than they look.
On predictability, Crocs Inc scores 3.9, a weak reading. Its peers have a median of 5.0 across 178 Consumer Discretionary companies, which places it below them, at the 25th percentile. When results are this uneven, the averages behind the other pillars hide a lot of movement, and a longer history tells more than the latest year.
This is a lopsided profile. Profitability scores 9.2 but efficiency only 3.0, a gap of 6.2 points, so the overall hides a business that is excellent in one respect and weak in another. Leading with profitability is the most valuable kind of strength, because margins and returns are what the other pillars ultimately feed. An efficiency shortfall means profit is not turning into cash as readily as it could.
Of everything that could lift Crocs Inc’s score, efficiency matters most. Bringing it up to the 6.2 median of Consumer Discretionary companies would take the overall from 6.0 to roughly 6.5. 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.
These are the Consumer Discretionary companies closest to Crocs Inc in market value. Each has its own page scored on the same five pillars, so the comparison is like for like.

How fast revenue, earnings and cash flow are compounding.
How well assets and earnings convert into cash and output.
How stable and consistent results have been over time.
Each metric is scored from 0 to 10 against sector-aware benchmarks, where higher is better. Metrics roll up into five pillars, and the pillars combine into the overall score using the weights shown. Sector-sensitive metrics are judged relative to peers in the same sector.
This score is a systematic, backward-looking read of reported fundamentals. It does not judge valuation, management quality, competitive moat, or future prospects, and can be distorted by one-off items or unusual accounting. Treat it as a starting point, not a recommendation.

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.
