All three tenses have at least two readings, so the archetype blend applies as printed.
Of the nine metrics, 8 read as filed from the record and 1 is an SI estimate, each with its reasoning, its confidence and what would change it on its card.

How strong is its position in its industry?
top 36% of 97 in its family; net margin 14.1%.
From the record
Tower Semiconductor Ltd.'s standing among 97 graded names in its industry family: revenue of $1.6 billion in fiscal 2025 ranks in the top 29% by size; a net margin of 14.1% ranks in the top 26%; revenue growth of -2.3% a year over the last 3 filed years ranks in the bottom 47% (its annual reports).

What are the people in charge doing?
SI estimate 5.4/10, confidence 20 of 100 (family median).
SI estimate Inferred, not read as filed
From the record
SI estimate, not a filed reading: Tower Semiconductor Ltd.'s leadership is put at 5.4 of 10 with a confidence of 20 of 100, because it files no Form 8-K (a foreign issuer reports on Form 6-K), so officer and director changes cannot be read there; the record of its people begins on 2026-05-28 (a listing, a merger or a first filing under the rules) and its chief executive and most of the people in charge have filed since then, so the record shows a floor of 6 months and cannot see past it; a floor under five years is not read as years in charge, so the desk assumes the typical reading of its industry family, the median of 78 members with one. Its next annual report on file with the inputs replaces this estimate with the filed reading.
What are they set up to do next?
How much room does it have to grow?
bottom 30% of 94 in its family for room to expand.
From the record
Tower Semiconductor Ltd.'s room to grow, from the newest filed statements (fiscal 2025): cash of $235 million against debt of $133 million leaves 3.1% of its assets as net cash, bottom 38% of its family; cash from operations less capital spending is -3.1% of revenue (bottom 37%); a gross margin of 23.2% (bottom 25%); research spending of 5.5% of revenue (bottom 20%) (its annual report).
What it rests on

What could actually drive growth from here?
bottom 45% of 93 in its family for growth drivers.
From the record
Tower Semiconductor Ltd.'s growth drivers, from the filed years to fiscal 2025: revenue grew -2.3% a year over the last three filed years against 2.5% over all 10, slowing (top 42% of its family); the newest year grew 9.1% (bottom 46%); research spending grew 1% a year (bottom 28%); capital spending grew 6.6% a year (bottom 47%) (its annual reports). Tower Semiconductor Ltd. 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.

Did its newest year beat what its own record pointed to?
bottom 39% of 88 in its family for expectations against reality.

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
