Analysts' upside	–	–	How far analysts' average 12-month target sits above the price (3+ analysts). −20% scores 0, +50% full marks; at most 50 while the price is below its 200-day average, since targets lag a falling price.

A call is right when the stock rose after an in call or fell after an out call. Trend plays are built to take many small losses for a few big wins, so their hit rates run lower; being right often isn't the same as making the most money. How we test a play.

Next earnings report

Mon Oct 26, 2026 after the close

From Yahoo Finance's calendar; dates can move. Analysts expect earnings per share of 1.25.

Over its last 12 reports, FLXS's typical move against the S&P 500 at the first close after the report was ±9.2% (median size, either way); it finished ahead of the index 9 times.
FLXS after beats of 5% or more: ahead of its index at the first close after the report 17 of 25 times (median +3.2%).
FLXS after misses of any size: behind its index at the first close after the report 11 of 15 times (median −2.8%).
Across all covered stocks, beats of 5% or more were followed by a gain against the index 64% of the time and misses by a drop 62% of the time.

Whether a report beats is only known once it is out, so these say how the stock has reacted, not which way it will go.

A crash marks every stock down; debt decides which companies come through. The storm test scores both halves: how hard the stock swings with the market, and how much debt it carries into a downturn. It describes fragility; it does not predict a crash.
