The Quality Score for XPO stands at 4.8 out of 10 as of October 18, 2026, which puts XPO, Inc. in the mixed quality band. In this band one or two pillars are usually holding the score up while others drag it down, which the breakdown below makes visible. It rolls XPO, Inc.’s profitability, solvency, growth, efficiency and predictability into one number, each judged against the norms of its sector.
Among the 270 Industrials companies with a published score, that ranks at the 37th percentile, in the lower half of the group, above the bottom quarter. For reference, the middle of the group scores 5.6 and a company needs 6.5 to reach its top quarter, which leaves XPO, Inc. below the median.
On profitability, XPO, Inc. scores 5.4, an average reading. Its peers have a median of 4.9 across 262 Industrials companies, which places it above them, at the 57th percentile. Profitability in the middle of the range is neither a moat nor a warning: margins and returns look like those of an ordinary business in this line of work.
On solvency, XPO, Inc. scores 5.0, an average reading. Its peers have a median of 7.1 across 241 Industrials companies, which places it well below them, at the 27th percentile. An average solvency reading suggests debt is present but manageable, the normal state for a company that borrows to fund its operations.
XPO, Inc.’s growth score is 3.1 out of 10 (weak). Against a median of 5.4 among 216 Industrials companies, that is well below the group and the 20th 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.
On efficiency, XPO, Inc. scores 7.2, a strong reading. Its peers have a median of 6.2 across 264 Industrials companies, which places it above them, at the 73rd percentile. A strong efficiency reading usually shows up as healthy cash conversion: reported profit arriving as real cash rather than staying on the balance sheet.
On predictability, XPO, Inc. scores 3.9, a weak reading. Its peers have a median of 5.0 across 267 Industrials companies, which places it below them, at the 32nd 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.
The gap between XPO, Inc.’s best and worst pillar is wide: efficiency at 7.2 against growth at 3.1, 4.1 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.
The pillar with the most room to move the score is growth. If it rose to the median of Industrials companies, 5.4, XPO, Inc.’s overall score would go from 4.8 to about 5.3. The weights add up to 100 points (profitability 25, solvency 20, growth 20, efficiency 15, predictability 20), and XPO, Inc. has a reading on every pillar.

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.
