Russell 2000 Earnings Quality Watchlist

316 curated picks from 1,916 Russell 2000 small/mid caps — those passing quality (A/B) or triggering Beneish M-Score, with market cap ≥ $500M.

Why these 316?

  • Quality (212): earned an A or B grade across our 18 forensic accounting checks — uncommonly clean among small caps.
  • M-Score breach (104): Beneish M-Score above the -1.78 manipulation threshold — a statistical red flag worth examining.
  • $500M market-cap floor: filters out illiquid micro caps where small-base ratio swings frequently fire false signals.
