Weekly engine runs — movement reflects the numbers, not analyst opinion.
A decent, stagnant business, trading cheap versus its own history — but flagged on governance.
Brightcom Group is scored on the it / services framework. It keeps a healthy 13.9% of every rupee of sales as net profit. Cash conversion lags the reported profit (CFO/PAT 0.11×) — worth a closer look. Free cash flow is worth about -27.8% of its market value.
Over the last 3 years revenue compounded at -2%/yr and profit at -11%/yr. Book value has grown 15%/yr. Return on equity is a modest 9.1%. In the latest quarter profit grew 26% versus the prior quarter.
At 2× earnings, the stock sits at the 3rd percentile of its own 3.1-year range — the cheap end of where it has historically traded. Today's price asks for only ~-31%/yr growth over a decade — undemanding expectations. The forensic screen raises a red flag: Only ₹0.30 of cash per ₹1 profit over 4 years — earnings not converting to cash.

Negative CAGR — the top line has shrunk over this window. Growth is accelerating — latest year outpaced the prior year's rate.
Revenue is outpacing profit (-2% vs -11%) — costs are rising faster than the top line. The latest year saw a +36% swing — check if it's a one-off or structural.
Operating margin has compressed from 26% to 21% — costs or competition are eating into profitability. Margins have declined for 2 consecutive years — watch for a structural cost problem.
ROE at 9% — modest; the capital isn't working hard. Capital efficiency declining — ROE down 10pp.
-11% 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 0.1× PAT — reported profit isn't translating into cash, raising earnings quality questions. Investing outflows exceed operating cash — the company relies on external funding to finance expansion.
When operating cash keeps pace with reported profit, earnings are cash-backed; a persistent shortfall is a quality flag.
Revenue rose 10% sequentially — momentum is building. Run-rate fading — recent quarters 14% below earlier ones.
Profit jumped 26% 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 3.1y median.
Promoters hold just 18.4% — widely held; sentiment-driven.
