Grammar
would have scored - doesn´t seem to be a conditional
Hello 
Please could you tell me what kind of grammar this is? It doesn´t seem to be a conditional clause/sentence - either a "half of it". Please, would it be possible to give me another example so that I could understand it better?
Thank you very much!

In a recent survey about what makes people happy at work, Innocent was listed as one of the top companies to work for. You obviously think it is a happy company. Now why do you think that?
Becka: Well, I can see how we would have scored quite highly on that scale, I think there is quite big emphasis.....
