# Company Earnings Quality Score

`GET /stock/earnings-quality-score`

This endpoint provides Earnings Quality Score for global companies.

Earnings quality refers to the extent to which current earnings predict future earnings. "High-quality" earnings are expected to persist, while "low-quality" earnings do not. A higher score means a higher earnings quality

Finnhub uses a proprietary model which takes into consideration 4 criteria:

*   Profitability
*   Growth
*   Cash Generation & Capital Allocation
*   Leverage

  

We then compare the metrics of each company in each category against its peers in the same industry to gauge how quality its earnings is.
