Weekly engine runs — movement reflects the numbers, not analyst opinion.
A middling, stagnant business, trading cheap versus its own history — but flagged on governance.
Arihant Superstruct is scored on the general / industrial framework. It keeps a slim 8.3% of every rupee of sales as net profit. Cash conversion lags the reported profit (CFO/PAT -1.54×) — worth a closer look. Free cash flow is worth about -10.7% of its market value.
Over the last 3 years revenue compounded at 12%/yr and profit at 3%/yr. Book value itself has compounded 23%/yr — the hallmark of a genuine compounder. Return on equity is a modest 10.7%. In the latest quarter profit fell 18% versus the prior quarter.
At 21× earnings, the stock sits at the 15th percentile of its own 4.6-year range — the cheap end of where it has historically traded. Today's price implies ~11%/yr earnings growth for a decade. The forensic screen raises a red flag: Only ₹-1.64 of cash per ₹1 profit over 4 years — earnings not converting to cash.

12% CAGR over 3 years — steady double-digit compounder. Growth is accelerating — latest year outpaced the prior year's rate.
Revenue is outpacing profit (12% vs 3%) — costs are rising faster than the top line.
Operating margin has compressed from 13% to 11% — costs or competition are eating into profitability.
ROE at 14% — a respectable return on shareholder capital.
EPS dropped in the latest year despite possible profit changes — dilution or a profit dip could be at play. EPS outpaced profit growth — possible buybacks are concentrating earnings into fewer shares. 15% EPS CAGR — this is the rate at which each share's claim on earnings is compounding.
4 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 fell 27% QoQ — could be seasonality or a genuine slowdown. Wide quarterly swings (32% spread) — likely seasonality, lumpy orders, or project-based revenue. Run-rate stepping up — recent quarters average 25% above earlier ones.
Profit fell 18% QoQ — one-quarter drops can be noise, but a pattern matters.
How today's P/E compares to the stock's own historical range. Dashed line = the 4.6y median.
Promoters hold 71.1% — heavily owner-operated with strong skin in the game.
