How to read this page. The grades are simple heuristics applied to standard thresholds — they take no account of industry norms, business cycle position, or accounting policy. A bank will always look over-leveraged by these rules, and a cyclical will look cheap at the top of its cycle. Use them as prompts to investigate, never as conclusions.
