Weekly engine runs — movement reflects the numbers, not analyst opinion.
A decent, fast-growing business, priced for perfection.
AEROFLEX INDUSTRIES LTD is scored on the commodity / cyclical framework. It keeps a healthy 12.5% of every rupee of sales as net profit. Those profits are backed by real cash — operating cash flow runs 1.19× reported profit. Free cash flow is worth about -0.8% of its market value.
Over the last 3 years revenue compounded at 18%/yr and profit at 23%/yr. Book value itself has compounded 58%/yr — the hallmark of a genuine compounder. Return on equity is a healthy 18.0%. In the latest quarter profit grew 95% versus the prior quarter.
At 113× earnings, the stock sits at the 93rd percentile of its own 3.2-year range — the expensive end of where it has historically traded. Today's price already implies ~27%/yr earnings growth sustained for a decade — a demanding bar. 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.
Net profit has risen every year — the hallmark of a compounder. Profit is growing faster than revenue (23% vs 18%) — margin expansion is at work.
Operating margins have been stable around 17% — no major structural shift.
ROE at 12% — a respectable return on shareholder capital. Capital efficiency declining — ROE down 14pp.
EPS has grown every year — each share earns more than the last, consistently. Profit grew faster than EPS (23% vs 17%) — share dilution is eroding per-share value. 17% 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. Investing outflows exceed operating cash — the company relies on external funding to finance expansion. Raising capital despite positive cash flow — could signal expansion plans or opportunistic fundraising.
When operating cash keeps pace with reported profit, earnings are cash-backed; a persistent shortfall is a quality flag.
Revenue rose 42% sequentially — momentum is building. Wide quarterly swings (42% spread) — likely seasonality, lumpy orders, or project-based revenue. Run-rate stepping up — recent quarters average 43% above earlier ones.
Profit jumped 95% QoQ — check if this is operating leverage or a one-off item. Quarterly net margins are expanding (14% → 18%) — profitability per rupee of revenue is improving.
How today's P/E compares to the stock's own historical range. Dashed line = the 3.2y median.
Promoters hold 65.5% — heavily owner-operated with strong skin in the game. FIIs have accumulated for 3 straight quarters — sustained foreign institutional conviction.
