Curtiss-Wright Corp (CW) has a Lemma Quality Score of 7.6 out of 10 as of October 18, 2026, which reads as high quality. A high reading means most of the pillars are strong, with no serious weakness pulling the average down. 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 270 Industrials companies Lemma publishes, the score sits at the 94th percentile, near the very top of the group. For reference, the middle of the group scores 5.6 and a company needs 6.5 to reach its top quarter, which leaves Curtiss-Wright Corp well above the median.
On profitability, Curtiss-Wright Corp scores 7.3, a strong reading. Its peers have a median of 4.9 across 262 Industrials companies, which places it well above them, at the 80th percentile. Returns and margins at this level leave room to reinvest, absorb a bad year or return cash to shareholders without straining the business.
Curtiss-Wright Corp’s solvency score is 8.7 out of 10 (strong). Against a median of 7.1 among 241 Industrials companies, that is well above the group and the 77th percentile. Balance sheet strength like this rarely makes headlines, but it is what lets a company keep investing when credit gets expensive.
On growth, Curtiss-Wright Corp scores 6.7, an average reading. Its peers have a median of 5.4 across 216 Industrials companies, which places it above them, at the 69th percentile. Average growth reflects a business expanding at roughly the pace of its sector, without a clear acceleration or decline.
Curtiss-Wright Corp’s efficiency score is 6.6 out of 10 (average). Against a median of 6.2 among 264 Industrials companies, that is in line with the group and the 59th percentile. Efficiency near the median says the operation is neither unusually lean nor unusually capital hungry.
Predictability scores 8.7 out of 10, which reads as strong. The median across 267 Industrials companies is 5.0, so Curtiss-Wright Corp is well above its peers on this pillar and ranks at the 98th percentile. High predictability means the company’s results have moved steadily from year to year, which makes the other pillars more trustworthy as a guide.
The profile is uneven. Solvency leads at 8.7 while efficiency trails at 6.6, a gap of 2.1 points, so the overall averages a clear strength against a clear soft spot. A solvency lead means the balance sheet is the company’s strongest asset, a cushion that buys time when trading gets harder. An efficiency shortfall means profit is not turning into cash as readily as it could.
Every scored pillar is at or above the median of Industrials companies, so there is no catch-up left to lift the overall. The risk runs the other way: a one point fall in profitability, the heaviest of them, would take the score from 7.6 to about 7.3. 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 Industrials companies closest to Curtiss-Wright Corp in market value. Each has its own page scored on the same five pillars, so the comparison is like for like.
How much profit the company generates from its capital and sales.
The company’s ability to service debt and meet its obligations.
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.
