Revenue is on a 2-year growth streak. 10% CAGR — growing but slowly. Growth is decelerating — latest year grew slower than the year before.
2 of the 4 years shown had a loss — profitability is inconsistent. The latest year saw a -140% swing — check if it's a one-off or structural.
Operating margin has compressed from 20% to -16% — costs or competition are eating into profitability. Interest or tax burden is shrinking — more of the operating profit is reaching the bottom line. Margins have declined for 3 consecutive years — watch for a structural cost problem.
Negative ROE — the business is destroying shareholder value. Capital efficiency declining — ROE down 10pp.
EPS dropped in the latest year despite possible profit changes — dilution or a profit dip could be at play. Profit grew faster than EPS (-92% vs -97%) — share dilution is eroding per-share value. -97% EPS CAGR — this is the rate at which each share's claim on earnings is compounding.
1 of 4 years had negative operating cash flow — profitability on paper may not translate to cash. Financing outflows in consecutive years — balance-sheet discipline through debt repayment or dividends.
When operating cash keeps pace with reported profit, earnings are cash-backed; a persistent shortfall is a quality flag.
Revenue rose 73% sequentially — momentum is building. Wide quarterly swings (93% spread) — likely seasonality, lumpy orders, or project-based revenue. Run-rate stepping up — recent quarters average 432% above earlier ones.
3 of 4 quarters loss-making — quarterly profitability is uneven. Profit jumped 599% QoQ — check if this is operating leverage or a one-off item. Quarterly net margins are expanding (-92% → 17%) — profitability per rupee of revenue is improving.
P/E band unavailable — needs 5y of consistent EPS + price history.
Promoters at 45.9% — dispersed ownership; institutional flows drive the stock.
