Growth against the P/E multiple. Up and to the right is cheaper and faster — the quality-growth idea in one picture. Points beyond the axis are pinned to the edge and marked off-scale rather than allowed to compress everything else.

The companies
EFXEquifax Inc.
Consulting Services · $145.78 · beta 1.34
Why now
Consulting Services · market cap $17.1b. Down 39% from 52-week high of $238.94 — deep drawdown territory. 21 sell-side analysts rate this a Buy with a mean 1-yr target of $203.10 (implying +39% upside).
Moat
ROE 14% meets the long-run market sustainable threshold — solid but not differentiated; the durability comes from elsewhere. FCF converts 160% of net income — earnings translate cleanly into cash.
Risk
Down 39% from the 52-week high — the market is pricing in something the screen can't see; verify the bear case before sizing up.
AMTMAmentum Holdings, Inc.
Specialty Business Services · $19.29 · beta 0.31
Why now
Specialty Business Services · market cap $4.7b. Down 49% from 52-week high of $38.11 — deep drawdown territory. Revenue growing +72% — in hypergrowth territory. 12 sell-side analysts rate this a Buy with a mean 1-yr target of $29.42 (implying +52% upside).
Moat
Free cash flow runs well ahead of reported net income, mostly because of depreciation and amortization ($439m) — non-cash charges that hold down reported earnings while cash generation stays strong.
Risk
Down 49% from the 52-week high — the market is pricing in something the screen can't see; verify the bear case before sizing up. Net margin 1.4% is thin — operating leverage cuts both ways; input-cost inflation or pricing pressure hits the bottom line first. ROE 4% is below the long-run sustainable threshold of ~10% — capital efficiency would need to improve for the equity base to compound at the market rate.

Where EFX and AMTM diverge
On the headline score the gap is 3.5 points in favor of AMTM. They get there differently, though — each leads on a different pillar, so the better pick depends on which you weight.

Pillars run 0–100. Value is judged against each company's own sector, so a Value score is a statement about a company relative to its own industry rather than to the other name here. A wide Value gap usually means the market already prices the difference in quality or growth — which is the trade-off this comparison comes down to.
Common questions
Is AMTM or EFX the better stock?
AMTM scores higher: AMTM 70.2, EFX 66.7 out of 100 on the Bull Rankings quality-growth score, which blends business quality, growth and valuation into one number. A higher score means a stronger business at a more reasonable price — it is not a price target or a recommendation.
Where do AMTM and EFX differ most?
The widest gap is value, where AMTM leads by 28 points on the 0–100 pillar scale. Neither name sweeps: they trade the lead across the three pillars, so the comparison is a trade-off rather than one being better on every measure.
How are AMTM and EFX scored?
Each carries the same 0–100 quality-growth score used everywhere on the site, built from three pillars — quality (profitability and returns on capital), growth (revenue and earnings), and value (what you pay for them) — combined as a geometric mean, so a weak pillar cannot be papered over by a strong one.
How current is this comparison?
The whole universe is re-scored every trading day after the US market close, so the scores and fundamentals here reflect the latest published edition.
