All three tenses have at least two readings, so the archetype blend applies as printed.
Of the nine metrics, 6 read as filed from the record and 3 are SI estimates, each with its reasoning, its confidence and what would change it on its card.

How has it treated the people who own it?
SI estimate 6.3/10, confidence 20 of 100 (family median).
SI estimate Inferred, not read as filed
From the record
SI estimate, not a filed reading: Greif, Inc.'s shareholder treatment is put at 6.3 of 10 with a confidence of 20 of 100, because fewer than two of the parts can be read: the share count over the years, and the cash returned against a positive operating cash flow or net income, so the desk assumes the typical reading of its industry family, the median of 29 members with one. Its next annual report on file with the inputs replaces this estimate with the filed reading.
What are they doing right now?
Is it financially healthy right now?
SI estimate 4.8/10, confidence 20 of 100 (family median).
SI estimate Inferred, not read as filed
From the record
SI estimate, not a filed reading: Greif, Inc.'s financial health is put at 4.8 of 10 with a confidence of 20 of 100, because fewer than two of the four checks can be read, so the desk assumes the typical reading of its industry family, the median of 34 members with one. Its next annual report on file with the inputs replaces this estimate with the filed reading.
How strong is its position in its industry?
top 44% of 35 in its family; net margin 6.2%.
From the record
Greif, Inc.'s standing among 35 graded names in its industry family: revenue of $4.4 billion in fiscal 2024 ranks in the top 17% by size; a net margin of 6.2% ranks in the top 31%; revenue growth of -7.8% a year over the last 3 filed years ranks in the bottom 18% (its annual reports).
What it rests on
A production reading, recomputed from the filings on every data build, read from EDGAR Nov 13, 2026.
What are the people in charge doing?
top 34% of 28 in its family for leadership; chief executive since 2022.
From the record
Greif, Inc.'s leadership, from its insiders' filings and its current reports: the chief executive on the record is Rosgaard, Ole G (President and CEO, as filed), filing under that title since 2022-12-16, 3.9 years (bottom 44% of its family); most of the 23 officers and directors filing now have filed since the record of its people begins (2022-02-10), a floor of 4.7 years the record cannot see past, so that part is not read; 4 officer or director changes were reported on Form 8-K since 2023-11-13, against the 23 people in charge now (top 13%; fewer changes for each person reads higher) (the Form 4 record, its Form 8-K reports). Years count from a person's first filing in the SEC's data sets, which begin in 2006, so each is a floor.

What are they set up to do next?
How much room does it have to grow?
SI estimate 3.4/10, confidence 35 of 100 (one part).
SI estimate Inferred, not read as filed
From the record
SI estimate, not a filed reading: Greif, Inc.'s room to expand is put at 3.4 of 10 with a confidence of 35 of 100, because read from one part only, cash less debt against assets, which ranks in the bottom 34% of 36 in its family; the record does not carry two of the four parts: cash less debt against assets, cash from operations less capital spending against revenue, gross margin, research against revenue. A filing that carries the missing parts replaces this estimate with the filed reading.
What could actually drive growth from here?
bottom 48% of 34 in its family for growth drivers.
From the record
Greif, Inc.'s growth drivers, from the filed years to fiscal 2024: revenue grew -7.8% a year over the last three filed years against 3.4% over all 9, slowing (bottom 9% of its family); the newest year grew 4.3% (top 47%); capital spending grew 16.1% a year (top 18%) (its annual reports). Greif, Inc. tags no split of its revenue by line in the annual report on file, so growth by line cannot be read here; research and capital spending are on the trend.
What it rests on
A production reading, recomputed from the filings on every data build, read from EDGAR Nov 13, 2026.
Did its newest year beat what its own record pointed to?
top 38% of 34 in its family for expectations against reality.
From the record
Greif, Inc.'s newest year against its own record: revenue of $4.4 billion in fiscal 2024 came in 20.3% above the $3.6 billion its prior three years' pace pointed to (top 12% of its family); net income of $269 million against a prior three-year average of $376 million (bottom 44%); a net margin of 6.2% against 7.2% before (top 47%) (its annual reports).

The grade is the company against its own industry, from its filings. It is not a view on the share price. How the grade is made
