Formula

Graham number = √(22.5 × EPS × BVPS)

The 22.5 = Graham's 15× P/E × 1.5× P/B ceilings for a defensive stock. It deliberately ignores growth and intangibles — useless for asset-light tech, sensible for industrials and banks. A screen for the value-minded, not a verdict; pair it with debt and earnings stability.
