Reliable dividend payers with sustainable yields, screened on payout ratio and balance-sheet health.
Application Software includes vertical SaaS, horizontal productivity suites, and enterprise platforms. Composite scoring weights the Quality pillar heavily (gross margin, ROIC, free-cash-flow conversion) since the cohort is capital-light and subscription-driven. Valuation pillar uses EV/Sales and rule-of-40 alongside P/E for the still-investing names.
