As of October 18, 2026, Expeditors International of Washington Inc. scores 5.4 out of 10 on the Lemma Quality Score, a reading of mixed quality. In this band one or two pillars are usually holding the score up while others drag it down, which the breakdown below makes visible. Nothing in it comes from the share price or from forecasts: it is Expeditors International of Washington Inc.’s own reported numbers, scored pillar by pillar.
Set against 270 Industrials companies, Expeditors International of Washington Inc. lands at the 47th percentile, just below the middle 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 Expeditors International of Washington Inc. in line with the median.
Profitability scores 7.0 out of 10, which reads as strong. The median across 262 Industrials companies is 4.9, so Expeditors International of Washington Inc. is well above its peers on this pillar and ranks at the 78th 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.
Solvency has no score for Expeditors International of Washington 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 solvency score across 241 Industrials companies is 7.1. Without it the overall says nothing about how comfortably the company carries its debt.
Growth scores 1.0 out of 10, which reads as weak. The median across 216 Industrials companies is 5.4, so Expeditors International of Washington Inc. is well below its peers on this pillar and ranks at the 6th 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.
Expeditors International of Washington Inc.’s efficiency score is 8.4 out of 10 (strong). Against a median of 6.2 among 264 Industrials companies, that is well above the group and the 94th percentile. High efficiency means assets and earnings are being turned into cash and output better than at most peers, a sign of a well run operation.
Predictability scores 5.7 out of 10, which reads as average. The median across 267 Industrials companies is 5.0, so Expeditors International of Washington Inc. is above its peers on this pillar and ranks at the 65th percentile. Middling predictability suggests some volatility in the record, enough to read the other pillars with a little caution.
The gap between Expeditors International of Washington Inc.’s best and worst pillar is wide: efficiency at 8.4 against growth at 1.0, 7.4 points apart. An average of two readings this different deserves a closer look than the headline number. Leading with efficiency points to disciplined use of capital, a strength that compounds quietly. Slow growth limits how fast the business can compound, even when everything else is in order.
Of everything that could lift Expeditors International of Washington Inc.’s score, growth matters most. Bringing it up to the 5.4 median of Industrials companies would take the overall from 5.4 to roughly 6.5. With one pillar unscored, the overall rests on 80 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).
