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.

Residential Construction · $43.13 · beta 1.34
Why now
Residential Construction · market cap $2.6b. Down 36% from 52-week high of $67.57 — deep drawdown territory. Revenue -10% — in contraction; any catalyst that reverses this triggers re-rating. 14 sell-side analysts rate this a Hold with a mean 1-yr target of $53.07 (implying +23% upside).
Moat
FCF converts 160% of net income — earnings translate cleanly into cash.
Risk
Revenue contracting -10% — the operational turn is not yet visible in the top line. Down 36% 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 4.4% is thin — operating leverage cuts both ways; input-cost inflation or pricing pressure hits the bottom line first.
SKYChampion Homes, Inc.
Residential Construction · $79.63 · beta 1.02
Why now
Residential Construction · market cap $4.3b. 20% off the 52-week high of $99.17. 6 sell-side analysts rate this a Buy with a mean 1-yr target of $103.50 (implying +30% upside).
Moat
ROE 12% meets the long-run market sustainable threshold — solid but not differentiated; the durability comes from elsewhere. FCF converts 139% of net income — earnings translate cleanly into cash.
Risk
Mature compounder — the risk is paying up for quality at a moment when growth is decelerating. Watch for sequential revenue + margin trends; the inflection from "compounder" to "ex-compounder" is hard to spot until the multiple already started compressing.

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 SKY or KBH the better stock?
SKY scores higher: SKY 50.9, KBH 29.3 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 SKY and KBH differ most?
The widest gap is growth, where SKY leads by 37 points on the 0–100 pillar scale. SKY also leads quality, while value is effectively level between them.
How are SKY and KBH 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.
