How is this score computed?
The score has two parts. The verdict sets the base — Compliant starts at 50. Then up to 50 more is added for headroom: the further a company's ratios sit below their limits, the higher it climbs. Barely clearing the limits lands near 50; plenty of room to spare approaches 100.
PAYX's ratios average 64.40% of headroom below their limits, so it scores 82 (50 base + 32 for headroom).
