The thesis, from the filings

Qfin Holdings, Inc. earns about 37% on invested capital, far above its ~9% cost of capital, and has bought back 15% of its shares over 5 years — the marks of a durable business run for its owners. The estimate methods put fair value between $32.53 and $175.66 a share.Whether it’s worth owning at today’s price is the last question — and yours to answer, below.

iii. Is this a good business?
Moat signal · return on invested capital
37% avg · 5y
FY21 65%FY22 34%FY23 24%FY24 32%FY25 31%

It earned about 37% on invested capital, year after year, against a ~9% cost of capital — the footprint of real pricing power. Competition usually drags returns like this back down; here it hasn't.

seeing a moat in the numbers →
Management signal · capital allocation
−15% shares · 5y

Share count is down 15% over 5 years — management has been buying back stock, quietly handing owners a bigger slice.

Signals, not verdicts — read from the filings above. Numbers don’t prove a moat; they show its footprint. You decide.

iv. What it’s worth — engine v0.1.0

The 3 estimate methods that apply put fair value between $32.53 and $175.66 a share. They rest on different assumptions, so where they diverge is the story; the Graham Number is a stricter floor, not a target.
