Definition
The Piotroski F-Score, developed by accounting professor Joseph Piotroski, evaluates a company's financial strength using nine criteria across profitability, leverage, and operational efficiency. Each criterion scores 1 (pass) or 0 (fail) — the total ranges from 0 to 9. A strategy of buying value stocks with high F-Scores has historically outperformed the market by an average of about 7.5–11% annually.
