The financial-health reading above compares this company's equity at BOOK value, not at what the market currently pays for it — this free snapshot doesn't pull live market data. Treat it as a rough read, not the final word.
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, going concern, valuation). 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.
Universal Safety Products, Inc. earns a D (Weak — demands caution) forensic quality grade, and its balance-sheet distress test reads -8.9, placing it in the Distress zone (based on book value, not market value, since this free snapshot doesn't pull live market data — treat this zone as a rough read, not the final word). 5 forensic signals were flagged in its latest SEC filings, led by shareholder returns.
What the filings flag
431% of OCF
FY2026
Shareholder returns.Returned $2M to shareholders (buybacks + dividends) in FY2026 — 431% of operating cash flow. Capex isn't disclosed for FY2026, so this is the ceiling on coverage, not the free-cash-flow payout; returns exceed even operating cash, so the extra is coming from debt or reserves.
n/m (sign flip)
FY2025→FY2026
Accruals ratio (% of NOA).Net operating assets flipped from positive to negative FY2025→FY2026 (FY2025 $+4.8M to FY2026 $-0.4M) — the standard accruals ratio divides by the average of the two, which collapses toward zero right as the sign changes, so the resulting percentage is a denominator artifact, not a real accrual measurement. Treat this as a structural balance-sheet shift to understand on its own terms rather than a clean or dirty accruals read.
24d DSO
FY2025→FY2026
Receivables vs revenue.Days sales outstanding moved from 9 to 24 days FY2025→FY2026 (receivables -46% vs revenue -79%). Receivables are creeping up relative to sales. Across FY2024–FY2026 the day count ran 17 → 9 → 24 days, so the latest reading sits on top of a record that was flat or falling before it — one year's move, not a direction the business has been travelling in. Both figures are measured on period-end balances rather than the beginning-plus-ending average, because averaging needs the balance a year before every reading — FY2025's opening balance is on file, but across the 3 fiscal years read here (FY2024–FY2026) the average yields only 2 day counts (1 step), too few to tell a climb from one year's move.
153d
FY2025→FY2026
Inventory days.Days inventory outstanding moved from 85 to 153 FY2025→FY2026 (against cost of goods sold; inventory -88% vs -76% in cost of sales). Inventory is building a little faster than sales — watch for markdowns.
