3 companies · median 29 of 36 checks · prices as of 2026-10-23
Footwear and plastics stocks.
Sorted by how many checks each one passes. Sort by any column to see who is cheapest, who is growing, or who has the strongest balance sheet - and how that compares with what is normal for the industry.
Ranked by checks passed
3 companies in this sector→There is real spread here - Deckers Outdoor (DECK) leads on 30 of 36 checks, Nike (NKE) trails on 24, with a median of 29.
→NKE, DECK, CROX are 100% of the $72.2B we cover here, so a sector average says more about them than about the rest.
The filings behind this table close between 2026-06-30 and 2026-08-31, because these companies do not share a fiscal calendar; prices are the close of 2026-10-23. Each name links to its full report; every score is a count of pass-or-fail checks read from that company's own filings.
Where the sector falls short
median score per axis→Trend is where the footwear, rubber and plastics companies we cover come up short most often, at a median of 3 of 6, while Quality runs at 6. Every one of them passes at least five of the Value checks, so that axis separates nothing here.

Who grows, and who keeps it
every company in the industry→DECK does both: growing faster than this industry's middle and keeping more of each sale than it does. The industry's middle is 5% growth on a 13% margin. CROX does neither.
A year of price
not a fact about the business→1 of 3 are up over twelve months and the median move is -19.6% - Crocs (CROX) at +42.8% against Nike (NKE) at -44.2%. Price is not a fact about a business, and the Trend chapter of each report says what it is measured on.
