Peer comparison
Compared to 29 other orgs in AK with NTEE prefix A6.
Most-divergent component: program score sits 25 points above the peer median (60 vs. 35).
5-year trend: Steady State
No extreme longitudinal divergence detected. The organization is maintaining its current operational philosophy.
Overall score has gone from 36 → 47 over 5 years (improving by 11 points). A multi-year directional move of this magnitude is a signal worth investigating.
What's driving this score
- Comp-to-revenue ratio of 13.3% sits within the sector's healthy band (18–22%).
- Net assets declined for 3 consecutive years of deficit spending; cash runway narrowing.
What would change this score
The two changes that would most improve this score:
- Stabilize program expenses or grow earned-income revenue to break the consecutive-deficit pattern (~8 points to financial score).
Improving governance is a board decision. These are the levers.
