[ECL] Ecolab Inc. - Naive Bayes Classifier
Data updated 2024-Nov-22 (Friday)Note: Naive Bayes Classifier connects financial statement metrics with subsequent stock performance post earnings announcements for Ecolab Inc. [NYSE:ECL]. This popular learning technique categorizes user-selected financial metrics and the subsequent stock performance into bins/buckets and considers conditional probabilities in those situations in order to predict performance buckets for the test cases (e.g. most recent quarter).

Classifier predictions for the test set (dates held back from the training set) based on metrics selected
Prior probabilities for underperformance (53.3%) and outperformance (50.0%) are used as initial guesses for the classifier
| Date | Underperformance | Outperformance | Predicted | Actual |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2023-May-02 | 2.6% | 1.8% | Underperform | Outperform |
| 2023-Aug-01 | 4.6% | 0.9% | Underperform | Outperform |
Conditional Probabilities for selected metrics in the training set (quarterly financial statement data for Ecolab Inc. and subsequent performance post earnings announcement)
Each metric has been bucketed into High & Low groups around the median
Ecolab Inc. performance relative to the S&P 500 index has been bucketed into Outperformance & Underperformance
| Low|Underperform | High|Underperform | Low|Outperform | High|Outperform | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Free Cash Flow Absolute values | 44.4% | 55.6% | 52.9% | 47.1% |
| EBIT Margin Sequential growth (%) | 38.9% | 55.6% | 64.7% | 35.3% |
| Debt / Asset Sequential growth (%) | 55.6% | 38.9% | 35.3% | 64.7% |
| Operating Cash Flow / Sales Quarter on Quarter growth (%) | 38.9% | 50.0% | 58.8% | 29.4% |

Deepdive into raw conditional probabilities for selected metrics to understand prior probabilities and details of buckets created
Conditional Probabilities in deepdive table are raw (observed) values. Laplace smoothed values used in the classifier above are indicated in tooltip
When a metric bucket is empty/missing, the probability is denoted NaN%. Laplace smoothing takes care of this in the classifier evaluation
