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 (red flags, auditor quality, say on pay, board independence). 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.
Mama'S Creations, Inc. earns a C (Mixed — selective) forensic quality grade, and its balance-sheet distress test reads 15.2, placing it in the Safe zone. 5 forensic signals were flagged in its latest SEC filings, led by accruals ratio (% of noa).
What the filings flag
+73.2%
FY2025→FY2026
Accruals ratio (% of NOA).Net operating assets grew +73.2% relative to their own average in FY2026 — scaled by NOA itself, not total assets (see the Forensic Screens card's differently-scaled Sloan Accrual Ratio for that read). Accruals are building sharply — a large slice of profit sits in operating assets, not cash; Richardson/Sloan link high accruals to weaker future returns as they reverse. The build is led by inventory up +100% against +39% in cost of sales and receivables up +61% against revenue +39%. The cash-flow cross-check is more mixed: reported earnings ran behind operating cash by 22% of net operating assets, diverging from the balance-sheet accrual read.
27d
FY2025→FY2026
Inventory days.Days inventory outstanding moved from 19 to 27 FY2025→FY2026 (against cost of goods sold; inventory +100% vs +39% in cost of sales). Inventory is outrunning what's being sold — a flag for softening demand or obsolescence risk ahead. There's no FY2024 figure on file for inventory, so FY2025 has no opening balance to average against — both figures are measured on period-end balances rather than the beginning-plus-ending average, since averaging only the current year would make the move track balance-sheet growth rather than the business.
+2.6%/yr
FY2022–FY2026
Share-count dilution.Diluted share count changed +11% over the last 4 years to FY2026 (+2.6%/yr). The count is growing: more stock was issued than repurchased over this window, so aggregate results grew faster than their per-share equivalents. That's ~2.6% shaved off per-share growth every year — total profit has to grow that much just to keep earnings-per-share flat, and a stake held since FY2022 has been diluted ~10%.

Stock-based comp load.
Stock-based compensation ran 1.1% of revenue and 20% of free cash flow in FY2026 — about $0.05 per diluted share. The cost of it is not in the cash flow — no cash left the business — it is in the count: holders gave up about 4.1% of the company a year, and that rate is not falling. That is the figure to weigh, not the share of free cash flow.
12.2%
FY2026
Return on invested capital.Return on invested capital is 12.2% in the latest fiscal year and slipping from 14% — a modest positive spread over its ~8% cost of capital — growth adds value, though not dramatically.
