Lynch GARP · Criteria after Peter Lynch
GARP: proven earnings growth priced sensibly, judged on two criteria. A PEG below 1 and EPS growth inside Lynch's 10–30% band, both read off one realized EPS CAGR: five years of annual filings where the history runs that far, three or four where it does not. Price against growth is all this screen tests as a criterion, so no debt, margin or profitability filter runs here. Financials and real estate are excluded and every name under a $200M market cap is dropped before the two criteria run, which is this screen's only size rule. One Up on Wall Street describes paying for proven growth rather than for hype.

A name qualifies when it clears both criteria. Every one of them carries live data, so no name on this list has an unevaluated criterion.
PEG: Price/earnings divided by the historical EPS growth rate · EPS growth: 5-year earnings-per-share compound annual growth rate

Common questions
What is a good PEG ratio?
Lynch's rule of thumb: PEG below 1 means you're paying less than one year of P/E per point of growth, potentially cheap growth. Between 1–2 is fair; above 2 you're paying up. PEG is only as honest as the growth number used. Tenet uses a realized EPS CAGR taken across five years of annual filings, three or four when a company's filed history is shorter, never a forward estimate.
What is GARP investing?
Growth At a Reasonable Price, Peter Lynch's middle path between value and growth: find companies with durable double-digit earnings growth, then refuse to overpay for it. One Up on Wall Street describes a 10 to 30% growth band, and that is the band Tenet applies.
Which GARP stocks qualify right now?
94 of 2122 US names (as of 2026-10-01). The free view publishes the top 5 by Tenet Score with PEG, growth rate and the receipt for each, and the rest with Premium.
Does a name have to pass every criterion to qualify?
Yes. Every criterion must carry live data and every criterion must pass, so each name on this list cleared both criteria. There is no partial-credit bar here and no "not checked" criterion to discount.
