EquipmentShare.com Inc. stock analysis

Everything behind the call on EquipmentShare.com Inc. 6 sections, ordered the way risk stacks up: survival first, quality and price in the middle, context last. The Beacon gives you the read. This is where you check the work.

The five reads
Why the reads disagreeread this before the sections

Event and Trend are pulling against each other and one side is clearly ahead. The net lands at -3 over 30d, a leaning reading on a dispersion of 0.23, which makes this a question of size rather than of direction.

Leans up · and why
earnings vote up. 1 of 5 independent evidence families agree.
Leans down · and why
quality / value, analyst moves, insider flow vote down. 4 of 5 families lean the other way. The conflict that matters is Event against Trend.
What it changes
Size, not direction. dealers are long gamma, so their hedging absorbs moves rather than amplifying them; and the binding position cap is 1.6% — the tail cap is the one that binds.

Not an income position.

No dividend is declared, so nothing here contributes to total return except the price. That is a fact about the security, not a criticism of it.

Price & timing

Price $17.35, RSI 45, and dealers long gamma.

↳ Plain EnglishA multiple is what the market charges for a dollar of this company's earnings, cash or revenue; the trend and the options tape say what the price is doing around it. Together they are the timing picture, not the quality one.
Momentum (RSI-14)

How to read this
Up 6.31% on the session.

Follow the solid line: each point is a session close. Compare it to the 50-day average — while price stays above it the short-term trend is up, and a drop below is the first structural warning.

The dashed levels are the strikes the options chain is most committed to. They are the same numbers the gamma block states; nothing here is drawn that no section derives.

3 of the 5 priced multiples above sit in the richer half of its band. Each priced multiple is read against this stock's own history where a five-year range is on file, so the question is whether today is dear for this name rather than for the market. The multiples are computed separately from the quote above and are not re-priced as it moves, so they can lag it.

Failure modes · by company type
Data unavailableFailure modes are routed per company type, and only the bank-run and crypto-treasury rulebooks are validated so far. This name routes as growth, so there is no cohort-specific checklist to run. A generic list would read as analysis without being any.

Signal
3 of 8 surfaces clear.

8 surfaces checked, 3 clear. The binding constraint is position size — the tail cap is the one that binds. Each row states which surface it is and what it measured; a surface that could not be scored says so rather than counting as clear.

Who should skip it
Skip it if any of these is you
You can't sit through -54%
That is this name's deepest measured fall, on 65% annualized volatility. A drawdown of that size is normal here, not exceptional.
You want income
A 0.00% yield is a rounding error against cash. This is a capital-gains position.
You're already heavy in this market
A 1.84 beta means you would be stacking the same bet rather than spreading it.
You'd size it like a core holding
The binding cap is 1.6% of a portfolio. Above that the tail stops being survivable.

Glossary · every term on this page
Survival
Altman Z

Bankruptcy-risk score. Above 3.0 is the safe band.

Piotroski F

Nine pass/fail health tests; 7 or more is strong.

Beneish M

Accrual and growth pattern screen. Clear below −2.22, watch to −1.78, elevated above; a year of very fast revenue growth lifts it by construction.

Merton DTD

Standard deviations of asset value between the company and its debt.

EDF

Default frequency calibrated on what actually happened to similar names.

Price & tape
RSI-14

Momentum gauge 0–100. Above 70 is overbought, below 30 oversold.

ATR

Average true range — the size of a typical day.

VWAP

20-day volume-weighted average price — the average paid over the last month; the page shows no intraday VWAP.

Supertrend

A trend-following stop line. A close through it flips the read.

Chandelier

A trailing stop set a few average ranges below the recent high.

Options & flow
Gamma / GEX

Dealer hedging pressure. Negative gamma amplifies moves both ways.

Call / put wall

The strikes with the heaviest open interest; they act as ceiling and floor.

Max pain

The strike where most options expire worthless.

13F · Form 4

Institutional filings, 45 days after quarter end. Insider trades, within two days.

Scoring
Composite signal

Independent factors scored and netted into one number.

Hit-rate

Share of past calls that resolved in the direction stated.

Brier score

Calibration measure. Lower means stated probabilities track reality.

HHI

Concentration 0–10,000. Above 2,500 means one segment carries the company.

EVT

Fits the tail rather than assuming a bell curve, so bad days are not understated.
