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.
Ocular Therapeutix, Inc earns a D (Weak — demands caution) forensic quality grade, and its balance-sheet distress test reads 11.6, placing it in the Grey zone. 4 forensic signals were flagged in its latest SEC filings, led by stock-based comp load.
What the filings flag
83% of rev
FY2025
Stock-based comp load.Stock-based compensation ran 83% of revenue in FY2025 — about $0.23 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 7.5% of the company a year, and that rate is not falling. That is the figure to weigh, not the share of free cash flow.
221d DSO
FY2024→FY2025
Receivables vs revenue.Days sales outstanding moved from 168 to 221 days FY2024→FY2025 (receivables -5% vs revenue -18%). Receivables are creeping up relative to sales. Across FY2021–FY2025 the day count ran 140 → 150 → 148 → 168 → 221 days — the latest step continues a climb that was already under way, which is the persistence that separates a collection problem from a busy quarter.
183d
FY2024→FY2025
Inventory days.Days inventory outstanding moved from 173 to 183 FY2024→FY2025 (against cost of goods sold; inventory +17% vs +17% in cost of sales). Inventory is building a little faster than sales — watch for markdowns.
n/m (stock split)
FY2022–FY2025
Share count (stock split).Diluted share count changed +127% over the last 3 years to FY2025, but that includes a large one-time change around FY2024 consistent with a stock split or reverse split, not gradual buybacks or issuance — a split changes the count with NO effect on any holder's proportional ownership, so the raw +31.3%/yr figure isn't a real buyback/dilution read here.
