Publicly documented philosophy
- Longstanding public preference for durable competitive moats and pricing power over commodity, low-differentiation businesses.
- Treats sustained, high return on capital — not a single strong quarter — as the core quality filter.
- Publicly wary of high leverage; favours conservative balance sheets that can survive a severe downturn.
- Weighs honest, capable management with a demonstrated capital-allocation track record as heavily as the numbers.
- Famously prefers paying a fair price for a wonderful business over a cheap price for a mediocre one.
Honesty note: Buffett's public 'durable moat' criterion is qualitative — pricing power and brand strength aren't fields in this dataset. This screen approximates it only via sustained high ROCE, low leverage and clean cash conversion (OCF/PAT), not a direct moat measurement.
