On the filings behind it, Carvana Co. Class A Common Stock earns 5.9 out of 10 for business quality as of October 17, 2026. That is solid quality on our scale. A solid reading is a respectable business with clear strengths and at least one area that falls short of the best in its field. The figure is a weighted average of five pillars, each scored from 0 to 10 against sector-aware benchmarks from reported statements.
Among the 179 Consumer Discretionary companies with a published score, that ranks at the 69th percentile, in the better half of its peers. The median across the group is 5.0, and the top quarter begins at 6.1, so Carvana Co. Class A Common Stock is above the typical company here.
Profitability scores 7.2 out of 10, which reads as strong. The median across 176 Consumer Discretionary companies is 5.1, so Carvana Co. Class A Common Stock is well above its peers on this pillar and ranks at the 74th 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, Carvana Co. Class A Common Stock scores 6.7, an average reading. Its peers have a median of 5.9 across 141 Consumer Discretionary companies, which places it above them, at the 60th percentile. An average solvency reading suggests debt is present but manageable, the normal state for a company that borrows to fund its operations.
There is no growth score for Carvana Co. Class A Common Stock: too little of the pillar could be measured from the filings to give an honest reading. The overall is therefore the weighted average of the other pillars. Across 149 Consumer Discretionary companies the median for this pillar is 4.0. Growth needs at least three years of comparable annual statements, so a short or interrupted history leaves it blank.
Carvana Co. Class A Common Stock’s efficiency score is 6.4 out of 10 (average). Against a median of 6.2 among 170 Consumer Discretionary companies, that is in line with the group and the 56th percentile. Efficiency near the median says the operation is neither unusually lean nor unusually capital hungry.
On predictability, Carvana Co. Class A Common Stock scores 3.1, a weak reading. Its peers have a median of 5.0 across 178 Consumer Discretionary companies, which places it well below them, at the 15th percentile. A low predictability score often belongs to cyclical businesses, where good and bad years alternate with the economy or with commodity prices.
This is a lopsided profile. Profitability scores 7.2 but predictability only 3.1, a gap of 4.1 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. A predictability shortfall means the record is volatile, so the averages behind the other pillars move more than they appear to.
Of everything that could lift Carvana Co. Class A Common Stock’s score, predictability matters most. Bringing it up to the 5.0 median of Consumer Discretionary companies would take the overall from 5.9 to roughly 6.4. Only four of the five pillars could be scored. Together they carry 80 of the 100 weight points (the full set is profitability 25, solvency 20, growth 20, efficiency 15, predictability 20), and the overall is the weighted average of those alone.
