## Swan Corp Ltd.

A first-pass moat teardown of Swan Corp Ltd., built from single-pass filing evidence. Free note — provisional, and the full two-pass deep dive may revise it.

4.88 / 10

NARROWProcess/Data-led

First-pass narrow read — primary edge in Efficient Scale. Provisional, single-pass evidence.

Provisional score · subject to modification based on new evidence

Swan Corp Ltd. scores **4.88** on MoatSCORE 6.0 — a narrow moat in Chemicals. This is a **first-pass note**: the dimensional read and the filing receipts below come from a single GFIP evidence pass, not the full two-pass deep corpus behind our flagship deep dives. Provisional — published free while the deep version is queued.

The teardown

D7Counter-PositioningExcluded—

Excluded for this archetype.

D8Ungoverned RiskUnscored · Layer 2.5

D8 rating: **ADEQUATE**. Not part of the moat score — it governs the cost of equity and the fade window. First-pass; not yet deep-reviewed.

The barrier gate 

## The barrier gate — first-pass

Replication — can a rival copy it?5.0

How hard it is for a rival to copy the edge (first-pass estimate).

Bypass — can a rival route around it?5.0

How easily a rival can route around the edge (first-pass estimate).

Effective barrier 5 — below 6, so the band is capped narrow. First-pass estimate.

What would change our mind

1. **Deep two-pass review.** This draft rests on a single GFIP evidence pass; the full 10-year AR + concall corpus may move the read.
2. **The barrier gate.** A firmer replication or bypass estimate is the most likely thing to shift the band.
3. **Adverse events.** Any governance, regulatory or funding shock captured in D8 could re-rate the fade window.

First-pass note — provisional single-pass MoatSCORE 6.0 read, not the full deep dive. Educational research, not investment advice; no buy/sell recommendation, no price target. Moat & Margin is not a SEBI-registered Research Analyst or Investment Adviser.
