Original graphic by Brian Feroldi. Network Effects infographic by Brian Feroldi. Defines a network effect as the phenomenon where a product gains additional value as more people use it, illustrated with phones on a network: 2 phones give 1 interaction, 5 give 10, 12 give 66, so more users create more network value which attracts more users. Contrasts direct network effects, where value rises directly with users, as in a telephone network, against indirect network effects, where usage of one product raises the value of a complementary one, as with a gaming console and its developers. Closes with the reinforcing mechanisms that deepen the moat: brand habit, switching costs, proprietary tech and economies of scale. https://stocksimplifier.com/images/infographics/switching-costs.jpg Switching Costs. Original graphic by Brian Feroldi. Switching Costs infographic by Brian Feroldi. Defines switching costs as the expenses or inconveniences a customer faces when changing supplier, then breaks them into six types with examples and companies that benefit: financial costs such as termination and installation fees; time costs such as learning new software or transferring data; psychological costs such as loyalty and attachment; effort costs such as setting up accounts and learning curves; social costs such as losing status associated with a brand; and risk costs such as uncertainty about reliability or data loss. Ends with the four forces influencing a customer to switch, balancing reasons to switch against existing habits and anxiety about change. https://stocksimplifier.com/images/infographics/company-lifecycle-phases.jpg The five phases of a company's lifecycle. Original graphic by Brian Feroldi. The five phases of a company's lifecycle, charted against revenue and profit: 1 Startup, 2 Hyper Growth, 3 Operating Leverage, 4 Capital Return, 5 Decline. Revenue rises from zero and rolls over in decline, losses deepen through startup and peak early in hyper growth, profits cross breakeven at the start of operating leverage, and dividends and buybacks begin in capital return. https://stocksimplifier.com/images/infographics/roe-vs-roa-vs-roic-vs-roce.jpg ROE vs ROA vs ROIC vs ROCE. Original graphic by Brian Feroldi. ROE vs ROA vs ROIC vs ROCE infographic by Brian Feroldi, comparing four return metrics across definition, formula, where the inputs are found, when to use, pros, cons and what to be aware of. Return on equity is net income divided by equity. Return on assets is net income divided by average total assets. Return on invested capital is EBIT after tax divided by long-term debt plus equity less non-operating cash. Return on capital employed is EBIT divided by total assets less current liabilities. ROE can be inflated by leverage and buybacks, ROA can mislead for companies with non-earning assets, ROIC is the best measure for cross-industry comparison but is complex to calculate, and ROCE can be skewed by high debt levels. https://stocksimplifier.com/images/infographics/what-is-a-reverse-dcf.jpg What Is a Reverse DCF. Original graphic by Brian Feroldi. What Is a Reverse DCF infographic by Brian Feroldi. A diagram shows a normal DCF running from key variables to future cash flows to a fair price, and a reverse DCF running the other way, from the current market price back to the variables it implies. Methodology: start with a company's current market value and work backward to determine the growth expectations implied by that valuation. Primary use: understanding the market's expectations for future cash flow growth built into the current stock price. Advantages include checking whether a price is reasonable and reading market sentiment. Limitations include assuming market efficiency and heavy reliance on the chosen discount rate. Key inputs are current market value, current cash flows and discount rate; the output is the implied growth expectation that justifies today's price. https://stocksimplifier.com/how-to-find-stocks-to-buy 2026-08-24 monthly 0.9 https://stocksimplifier.com/stocks-vs-etfs 2026-08-24 monthly 0.9 https://stocksimplifier.com/dividends-vs-buybacks 2026-08-24 monthly 0.8 https://stocksimplifier.com/net-revenue-retention 2026-08-24 monthly 0.8 https://stocksimplifier.com/how-to-read-a-10-k 2026-08-24 monthly 0.9 https://stocksimplifier.com/stock-red-flags 2026-08-24 monthly 0.9 https://stocksimplifier.com/roa 2026-08-24 monthly 0.8 https://stocksimplifier.com/owner-earnings 2026-08-24 monthly 0.8 https://stocksimplifier.com/how-to-value-a-stock 2026-08-24 monthly 0.9 https://stocksimplifier.com/dcf-vs-reverse-dcf 2026-08-24 monthly 0.8 https://stocksimplifier.com/growth-vs-value-investing 2026-08-24 monthly 0.8 https://stocksimplifier.com/roic-vs-roe 2026-08-24 monthly 0.8 https://stocksimplifier.com/ebitda-vs-free-cash-flow 2026-08-24 monthly 0.8 https://stocksimplifier.com/capital-allocation 2026-08-24 monthly 0.8 https://stocksimplifier.com/interest-coverage 2026-08-24 monthly 0.8 https://stocksimplifier.com/payout-ratio 2026-08-23 monthly 0.9 https://stocksimplifier.com/stock-based-compensation 2026-08-23 monthly 0.9 https://stocksimplifier.com/enterprise-value 2026-08-23 monthly 0.9 https://stocksimplifier.com/dividend-yield 2026-08-23 monthly 0.9 https://stocksimplifier.com/images/infographics/dividend-yield.jpg Dividend Yield. Original graphic by Brian Feroldi. Dividend Yield infographic by Brian Feroldi. Defines dividend yield as a financial ratio showing how much a company pays out in dividends each year relative to its stock price, calculated as dividend per share divided by stock price and expressed as a percentage. Key takeaways: mature companies are most likely to pay dividends; companies in slow growth industries such as utilities, energy and consumer staples often have relatively higher yields; REITs, master limited partnerships and business development companies pay higher than average dividends but are taxed at a higher rate; and higher yields do not always indicate attractive opportunities because the yield may be elevated by a declining stock price. Closes by noting that yield rises when the price falls and falls when the price rises. https://stocksimplifier.com/roe 2026-08-23 monthly 0.9 https://stocksimplifier.com/images/infographics/roe-vs-roa-vs-roic-vs-roce.jpg ROE vs ROA vs ROIC vs ROCE.

Original graphic by Brian Feroldi. WACC Cheat Sheet infographic by Brian Feroldi. Defines weighted average cost of capital as a company's blended cost of capital when it has multiple sources, weighted by each source's proportion of total capital. A capital structure scale runs from debt, meaning bonds and bank notes, through hybrid debt and equity such as preferred stock and convertible debt, to equity meaning common stock. A worked calculation shows cost of debt of 8% reduced by a 25% tax rate to an after-tax cost of 6.0%, which at a 25% debt weighting gives a weighted cost of debt of 1.50%, and a cost of equity of 12% at a 75% weighting giving a weighted cost of equity of 9.00%, summing to a WACC of 10.5%. https://stocksimplifier.com/tam-sam-som 2026-08-23 monthly 0.9 https://stocksimplifier.com/images/infographics/tam-sam-som.jpg TAM vs SAM vs SOM. Original graphic by Brian Feroldi. TAM vs SAM vs SOM infographic by Brian Feroldi. Three nested rectangles show total addressable market as the largest, defined as the entire potential market independently of a company's ability to reach and serve it; serviceable addressable market inside it, defined as the people the business can reach; and serviceable obtainable market smallest, defined as the share and portion of the market the company can capture. Below, two ways to calculate TAM are contrasted: bottom up, starting from current clients matching the ideal customer profile, the total number of similar companies fitting that profile, and that count multiplied by annual contract value; and top down, starting from the total size of the overall market, then the portion relevant to the business, then subsegments such as geography. https://stocksimplifier.com/stock-splits 2026-08-23 monthly 0.9 https://stocksimplifier.com/images/infographics/stock-splits.jpg Stock Splits Explained Simply. Original graphic by Brian Feroldi. Stock Splits Explained Simply infographic by Brian Feroldi. Explains that a 2-for-1 split means an additional share is given for each share owned, with a before and after table: total outstanding shares rise from 10,000,000 to 20,000,000, market capitalisation stays at $500,000,000, share price falls from $50 to $25, and shares owned rise from 1,000 to 2,000. Four reasons companies split follow: to increase liquidity, noting Berkshire Hathaway Class B's 50-to-1 split in 2010 which took the price from $3,475 to $69.50; for inclusion in price-weighted indexes, noting Apple's 7-for-1 split in 2014 ahead of joining the Dow; to try to increase market capitalisation by attracting a wider range of buyers; and to signal that management is confident about future prospects. https://stocksimplifier.com/pe-ratio 2026-08-23 monthly 0.9 https://stocksimplifier.com/rule-of-40 2026-08-23 monthly 0.9 https://stocksimplifier.com/images/infographics/rule-of-40.jpg Rule of 40. Original graphic by Brian Feroldi. Rule of 40 infographic by Brian Feroldi. Defines the rule as a guideline that a software company's combined revenue growth rate and profit margin should be at least 40%, noting profit margin could be EBITDA, free cash flow, operating or net margin. A chart tracks revenue growth against profit margin across three stages: hypergrowth, where revenue growth runs 85% falling to 55% and margins are negative 45% improving to negative 15%, with traits of over 40% annual growth, negative margins and heavy spending on R&D, sales and marketing, examples Zscaler and Samsara; growth, at 20% revenue growth and 20% margin, with traits of 10 to 40% growth, positive margins and a focus on margin improvement and customer acquisition cost, examples Palo Alto Networks and Fortinet; and maturity, at 10% growth and 30% margin, with traits of under 10% growth, optimized margins and a focus on retention, cost r https://stocksimplifier.com/working-capital 2026-08-23 monthly 0.9 https://stocksimplifier.com/images/infographics/working-capital.jpg Working Capital. Original graphic by Brian Feroldi. Working Capital infographic by Brian Feroldi. Defines working capital as the difference between a company's current assets and current liabilities, illustrated on a balance sheet diagram that separates current assets, cash and equivalents, marketable securities, accounts receivable, inventory and other current assets, from current liabilities, payables and accrued expenses, short-term debt and other current liabilities, with long-term assets, long-term liabilities and shareholder equity shown below. Notes that working capital, also called net working capital, measures liquidity and short-term financial health. Gives three ways to calculate it: simple, current assets minus current liabilities; narrow, current assets excluding cash minus current liabilities excluding debt; and specific, accounts receivable plus inventory minus accounts payable. https://stocksimplifier.com/how-many-stocks-should-you-own 2026-08-23 monthly 0.9 https://stocksimplifier.com/images/infographics/how-many-stocks.jpg How Many Stocks Should You Own. Original graphic by Brian Feroldi. How Many Stocks Should You Own infographic by Brian Feroldi. Three bands: too few at 0 to 10 stocks, a sweet spot at 15 to 20 stocks, and too complex above 25 stocks. Holding fewer than 15 concentrates risk and leaves the portfolio vulnerable to a few companies; owning 15 to 25 balances diversification against meaningful gains; more than 25 can dilute returns and makes each investment harder to manage and track. Key takeaways: avoid under-diversification by holding more than 10 stocks, aim for 15 to 20 for balance, and be cautious above 25. A chart from Dresdner Kleinwort Macro research plots total portfolio risk as standard deviation against the number of stocks held, falling steeply from about 29% at a few holdings and flattening toward the market risk floor of roughly 15% by around 20 to 30 stocks. https://stocksimplifier.com/learn 2026-08-23 monthly 0.9 https://stocksimplifier.com/images/phase-tool-nvda.jpg Phase Check placing NVIDIA in phase four, Capital Return.

A table of five metrics with formula and explanation: sales growth (year 2 sales divided by year 1 sales, great companies grow at least 5% a year); gross margins (revenue minus cost of goods sold, divided by revenue, a sign of pricing power); operating leverage (revenue growth rate versus profit growth rate); debt coverage (interest expense divided by operating income, ideally under 25%); and dilution (year 2 diluted shares divided by year 1, under 3% for fast growers and under 1% for slow ones). Four caveats follow: not all revenue growth is good for investors, gross margin can decline for good reasons, operating leverage diminishes over time, and buybacks can mask the true dilution rate. https://stocksimplifier.com/when-to-sell-a-stock 2026-08-23 monthly 0.9 https://stocksimplifier.com/images/infographics/when-to-sell.jpg When To Sell: the four categories.
