This free snapshot doesn't read filing or proxy text, so the auditor-quality and governance checks that can lower a grade were not evaluated (auditor quality, say on pay, board independence, going concern). Those checks only ever lower a grade, so the full analysis can land below the grade above but never above it — treat it as the most favourable reading, not the settled one.

Hub Group, Inc. earns a C (Mixed — selective) forensic quality grade, and its balance-sheet distress test reads 4.5, placing it in the Safe zone. 1 forensic signal was flagged in its latest SEC filings, led by return on invested capital.

What the filings flag

4.9%
FY2024
Return on invested capital. Return on invested capital is 4.9% in the latest fiscal year and slipping across FY2022–FY2024 from 18.7%. After-tax operating profit was $362M in FY2022 and $110M in FY2024, with operating income at 8.9% of revenue in FY2022, 5.1% in FY2023 and 3.6% in FY2024. The capital base behind it grew +16% across FY2022–FY2024, from $1.9B to $2.2B, while the return fell 13.8 points, so the dollars added over that window earned less than the 18.7% the older base was already earning.
