Revenue is on a 2-year growth streak. 14% CAGR over 3 years — steady double-digit compounder. Growth is decelerating — latest year grew slower than the year before.
Revenue is outpacing profit (14% vs 3%) — costs are rising faster than the top line. The latest year saw a -46% swing — check if it's a one-off or structural.
Operating margin has compressed from 29% to 20% — costs or competition are eating into profitability. Interest or tax burden is shrinking — more of the operating profit is reaching the bottom line.
ROE at 7% — modest; the capital isn't working hard.
EPS dropped in the latest year despite possible profit changes — dilution or a profit dip could be at play. 1% EPS CAGR — this is the rate at which each share's claim on earnings is compounding.
2 of 4 years had negative operating cash flow — profitability on paper may not translate to cash.
When operating cash keeps pace with reported profit, earnings are cash-backed; a persistent shortfall is a quality flag.
Revenue broadly flat QoQ — stable but not accelerating. Wide quarterly swings (37% spread) — likely seasonality, lumpy orders, or project-based revenue. Run-rate stepping up — recent quarters average 57% above earlier ones.
Quarterly net margins are expanding (11% → 28%) — profitability per rupee of revenue is improving.
