Quality

73

of 100 · stored research reading

Stored Quality research reads 73 of 100, an above-average reading in the covered universe. Some underlying measurements are stronger than others.

Quality research measures durability of the business itself from stored fundamentals: balance-sheet strength, profitability consistency and cash generation. It is a research reading, not a prediction of future returns.

How this is measured

Fundamental Momentum

Middle

53

of 100 · stored research reading

Stored Fundamental Momentum research reads 53 of 100. Stored measurements classify recent reported fundamentals as middle. This describes reported financial change already disclosed, with no forward-looking claim.

Fundamental Momentum research measures the direction of recently reported company fundamentals compared with the company's own history. It describes reported change, not future price movement.

How this is measured

Capital Returns

Favorable

67

of 100 · stored research reading

Stored Capital Returns research reads 67 of 100, recorded as favorable. Stored records show 13 consecutive years of dividend payments. Share count has been reduced at about 0.7% a year in the stored window.

Capital Returns research measures how a company has actually returned cash to shareholders: dividend record, buyback effectiveness, dilution control and how those payments were funded.

In the company’s own words

What this company does

Motorola Solutions is a global leader in mission-critical safety and security technologies for public safety, government, including defense, and enterprise customers. Our business is focused on safety and security, driven by our commitment to help create safer communities, safer schools, safer hospitals, safer businesses, and ultimately, safer nations. Grounded in nearly 100 years of close customer and community collaboration, we design and advance technology for more than 100,000 customers in over 100 countries with the goal of making everywhere safer for all.

Our ecosystem of safety and security technologies includes Mission Critical Networks ("MCN"), Video Security and Access Control ("Video") and Command Center. Our strategy is to generate value through our technologies that help meet the changing needs of our customers around the world in protecting people, property and places. While each technology individually strives to make users safer and more productive, we believe we can enable better outcomes for our customers by uniting these technologies as a comprehensive integrated safety and security system. Our goal is to help dismantle silos and barriers between people and systems, so that data unifies, information flows, operations run and collaboration improves to help strengthen safety and security everywhere.

We support public safety and defense agencies in their mission to protect communities and countries. We additionally serve our growing base of enterprise customers, including schools, hospitals, businesses and stadiums, as the criticality of safety and security becomes increasingly important. Across these diverse sectors, our technologies facilitate the connection between those in need and those who can help, enabling the collaboration that is critical for a more proactive approach to safety and security.

This collaboration is clearly illustrated in a school setting: When a teacher presses a panic button, our technologies can automatically notify local law enforcement, trigger a lockdown to secure all entries, share live video feeds with first responders and send mass notifications to key stakeholders. This integrated workflow helps schools to detect, respond to and resolve safety and security threats faster and more effectively.
