New major risk - Earnings quality The company has a high level of non-cash earnings. Accrual ratio: 43% This is considered a major risk. Non-cash earnings can arise from many different things.

These are practices that inflate earnings, while not providing a similar increase to cash flows. Companies in some select industries naturally have a high level of non-cash earnings and it is not a major concern. However, in the worst case scenario it can be an early sign of performance manipulation by management.
