On the filings behind it, QXO Inc. earns 4.2 out of 10 for business quality as of October 18, 2026. That is mixed quality on our scale. A mixed reading means the strengths and weaknesses roughly cancel out, and the case for the business depends on which pillars you care about most. The figure is a weighted average of five pillars, each scored from 0 to 10 against sector-aware benchmarks from reported statements.
Among the 270 Industrials companies with a published score, that ranks at the 26th percentile, in the lower half of the group, above the bottom quarter. A typical company in the group scores 5.6, and the best quarter starts from 6.5. QXO Inc. is below that typical reading.
QXO Inc.’s profitability score is 1.0 out of 10 (weak). Against a median of 4.9 among 262 Industrials companies, that is well below the group and the 15th 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 6.0 out of 10, which reads as average. The median across 241 Industrials companies is 7.1, so QXO Inc. is below its peers on this pillar and ranks at the 35th percentile. Middling solvency says the balance sheet is neither a strength nor a constraint today.
Growth scores 10.0 out of 10, which reads as strong. None of the other Industrials companies scores higher here, against a median of 5.4 across 216 of them. Strong growth means revenue, earnings and cash flow have been compounding faster than at most peers over the last few years.
On efficiency, QXO Inc. scores 2.0, a weak reading. Its peers have a median of 6.2 across 264 Industrials companies, which places it well below them, at the 5th percentile. A low efficiency score is worth reading alongside profitability: earnings that do not convert into cash are worth less than they look.
QXO Inc.’s predictability score is 2.0 out of 10 (weak). Against a median of 5.0 among 267 Industrials companies, that is well below the group and the 12th 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. Growth scores 10.0 but profitability only 1.0, a gap of 9.0 points, so the overall hides a business that is excellent in one respect and weak in another. A growth lead says the business is expanding faster than it is doing anything else well, which is worth checking against predictability. A profitability shortfall is the one most worth understanding, since it bears directly on whether the business creates value.
The pillar with the most room to move the score is profitability. If it rose to the median of Industrials companies, 4.9, QXO Inc.’s overall score would go from 4.2 to about 5.2. 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 QXO Inc. 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.
