Weekly engine runs — movement reflects the numbers, not analyst opinion.
A decent, slow-growing business, fully valued.
AARON INDUSTRIES is scored on the general / industrial framework. It keeps a slim 7.4% of every rupee of sales as net profit. Those profits are backed by real cash — operating cash flow runs 1.27× reported profit. Free cash flow is worth about 0.3% of its market value.
Over the last 3 years revenue compounded at 18%/yr and profit at 8%/yr. Book value itself has compounded 33%/yr — the hallmark of a genuine compounder. Return on equity is an elite 18.5%. In the latest quarter profit grew 13% versus the prior quarter.
At 42× earnings, the stock sits at the 76th percentile of its own 3.6-year range — the expensive end of where it has historically traded. Today's price implies ~14%/yr earnings growth for a decade. The books come through clean — a forensic grade of A, and Altman puts distress risk in the safe zone.

Revenue has grown every year across all 4 financial years shown. 18% CAGR over 3 years — steady double-digit compounder. Growth is decelerating — latest year grew slower than the year before.
Profit is on a 2-year growth streak. Revenue is outpacing profit (18% vs 8%) — costs are rising faster than the top line.
Operating margins have been stable around 12% — no major structural shift.
ROE at 14% — a respectable return on shareholder capital. Capital efficiency declining — ROE down 12pp.
EPS dropped in the latest year despite possible profit changes — dilution or a profit dip could be at play. Profit grew faster than EPS (8% vs -15%) — share dilution is eroding per-share value. -15% EPS CAGR — this is the rate at which each share's claim on earnings is compounding.
Operating cash flow has been positive every year — the business generates real cash, not just accounting profit. Cash conversion at 1.3× PAT — earnings are well-backed by cash; strong accrual quality. Heavy investing spend every year, but operations generate enough to cover it — the business self-funds its growth.
When operating cash keeps pace with reported profit, earnings are cash-backed; a persistent shortfall is a quality flag.
Revenue rose 11% sequentially — momentum is building.
Profit jumped 12% QoQ — check if this is operating leverage or a one-off item.
How today's P/E compares to the stock's own historical range. Dashed line = the 3.6y median.
Promoters hold 73.1% — heavily owner-operated with strong skin in the game.
