Vision
Our vision is to help investors build long-term financial security through stock market investment solutions built on a financially healthy foundation.
Investing without a full understanding of a company's Financial Health is like speculating or gambling.
Lincoln's Financial Health model enables all investors to assess the true quality and financial risks of more than 2,000 ASX listed companies. It provides an academically tested and commercially proven framework for assessing the quality of your investment decisions based on fundamental analysis.
Developed in 1982 by Lincoln founder, academic and former Olympian Dr Merv Lincoln, the Financial Health model assesses key accounting ratios relating to each company's profitability, cashflow, liabilities and assets. It then determines a Financial Health score providing unique insights into the financial strength and insolvency risk of each company.
Dr Lincoln developed a unique combination of ratios to identify potential insolvency risk after analysing thousands of failed and successful companies over a variety of economic cycles.
Refined and tested for the 21st century
Over the years we've tested and refined the Lincoln Financial Health model. In our most recent revalidation under the guidance of esteemed academic and economist, Associate Professor Neville Norman, we updated and refined the model for the 21st century.
Methodology and application
Whether you choose our stock market research software, Stock Doctor, or our managed fund, the Lincoln Australian Share Fund, you benefit from the same proven investment methodology.
