StockRanker automatically creates an ordering of your companies, from best to worse. It's the whole idea of it. Check the score in the right-most column - this is derived from how your companies evaluate in each of the categories.
A "Strong" rating awards a point, a "Weak" rating subtracts a point.

Both the actual score and its total sum are meaningless. We are only interested in finding the better companies out of a pool of potential investments. The companies are rated relative to each other. There is no absolute statement like "This is a good investment".
The basic algorithm is to calculate the top and bottom quartiles of how the companies perform in each category, with some custom logic on top. Quartiles are a bit tricky with small data sets, so there is some extra logic to provide additional discrimination.
