Intelligence organized around the decisions you actually face

Four intelligence domains, each applying the same analytical discipline to a different class of complexity. Every engagement is structured around your specific decision environment — not a standard package.

Financial Legal Economic Organizational Custom
Financial Intelligence
Veridian Equity Intelligence

Proprietary earnings quality and capital allocation scoring for the S&P 500, updated continuously with each SEC filing.

  • Earnings quality and capital allocation scoring, updated with each filing
  • Capital Allocation Quality (CAQ) scoring — self-funding ratio, trend analysis, capital flow classification
  • 27 raw financial statement fields and 45 calculated ratios per company
  • Annual and quarterly panel data, exportable to CSV or Excel
  • Watchlist and alert system for score changes and new filings
  • Academic licensing available — see Academic page

What VEI surfaces

The signals that financial statements don't volunteer

Earnings Quality
Accrual analysis, revenue recognition flags, and cash flow divergence — scored and ranked across the S&P 500
Capital Allocation Quality
Self-funding ratio, trend-weighted scoring, and 8-quadrant capital flow classification — a standalone metric separate from earnings quality
Continuous updates
Scores refresh with each SEC filing — analysts see this week's data, not last quarter's case study

VDA + AMC
Business Intelligence & Managed Monitoring

Most businesses already have substantial information about performance. The challenge is connecting internal financial and operating data with changes in the external environment — and identifying which relationships actually matter.

VDA and AMC operate as a coordinated intelligence system: VDA provides the analytical infrastructure — data integration, external intelligence, relationship analysis, historical baselines, and recurring monitoring. AMC helps leadership interpret what the evidence means, assess implications, prioritize decisions, and determine appropriate strategic or operational responses.

1 — Company-Level Intelligence

Financial, operational, and other recurring business data organized around the measures that matter to your organization.

  • Revenue, margins and cash flow
  • Working capital, receivables and inventory
  • Sales, customer and operating KPIs
2 — External Intelligence

Relevant economic and business indicators selected from VDA's database of 162 external series across 19 domains.

  • Interest rates and credit conditions
  • Employment, wages and input costs
  • Consumer, business and regional activity
3 — Relationship & Signal Analysis

Internal and external data examined together — not as separate reporting streams.

  • Trends, deviations and anomalies
  • Lead/lag relationships and correlations
  • Emerging risks and potential performance drivers
4 — Managed Intelligence Monitoring

Once useful indicators and relationships are established, VDA maintains the analytical framework over time.

  • Maintain history, baselines and thresholds
  • Flag material changes and developing patterns
  • Focus management attention where warranted
Illustrative application

A company experiences tightening cash flow despite continued revenue growth. Conventional reporting identifies the cash-flow problem. VDA analysis examines changes in receivables, margins, customer activity, and other company measures alongside relevant external indicators — to determine whether deterioration reflects internal operating issues, changing market conditions, or interacting factors, and to identify which signals warrant continued monitoring. AMC translates that evidence into prioritized decisions and a response plan.
