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.

Tredegar Corp earns a C (Mixed — selective) forensic quality grade, and its balance-sheet distress test reads 4.9, placing it in the Safe zone. 5 forensic signals were flagged in its latest SEC filings, led by shareholder returns — halted.

What the filings flag

stopped

FY2023→FY2025

Shareholder returns — halted. Capital returns have STOPPED — $9M of buybacks + dividends in FY2023, but ~$0 in FY2025. A halt usually means the company is conserving cash.

suspended

FY2023→FY2025

Dividend — suspended. The dividend has been SUSPENDED — $9M paid in FY2023, then $0 in FY2025. A suspension is a major signal the board is conserving cash; the prior payment history doesn't offset it.

10.4%

FY2025

Return on invested capital. Return on invested capital is 10.4% in the latest fiscal year and rising from 3% — a modest positive spread over its ~8% cost of capital — growth adds value, though not dramatically.

+0.9%/yr

FY2022–FY2025

Share count. Diluted share count changed +3% over the last 3 years to FY2025 (+0.9%/yr). Roughly flat — the count is neither shrinking nor growing meaningfully. Per-share value isn't being meaningfully helped or hurt by the count.

$62M

FY2020–FY2024

Goodwill impairments. Took $62M of goodwill writedowns across 3 years (FY2020 ($14M), FY2023 ($35M), FY2024 ($13M)). Writedowns mean past acquisitions underperformed what was paid for them.
