Weekly engine runs — movement reflects the numbers, not analyst opinion.
A middling, stagnant business, reasonably priced — but flagged on governance.
Compuc om Software is scored on the it / services framework. It keeps a slim 7.0% of every rupee of sales as net profit. Those profits are backed by real cash — operating cash flow runs 3.55× reported profit. Free cash flow is worth about -9.9% of its market value.
Over the last 3 years revenue compounded at -11%/yr and profit at -18%/yr. Book value has been broadly flat (-0.1%/yr). Return on equity is a weak 0.5%. In the latest quarter profit grew 26% versus the prior quarter.
At 35× earnings, the stock sits at the 20th percentile of its own 3.6-year range — the cheap end of where it has historically traded. Today's price implies ~16%/yr earnings growth for a decade. The forensic screen raises a red flag: 160% of pre-tax profit is other income, not operations.

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 (-11% vs -18%) — costs are rising faster than the top line. The latest year saw a +95% swing — check if it's a one-off or structural.
Operating margin has compressed from 14% to 10% — costs or competition are eating into profitability. Margins have declined for 2 consecutive years — watch for a structural cost problem.
ROE at 2% — modest; the capital isn't working hard. Low variance across years — a predictable business that earns steadily on its equity base.
-17% 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. Cash conversion at 3.5× PAT — earnings are well-backed by cash; strong accrual quality. 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 broadly flat QoQ — stable but not accelerating. Low quarterly variance (6% spread) — a predictable, non-seasonal revenue stream.
1 of 4 quarters loss-making — quarterly profitability is uneven. Profit jumped 26% QoQ — check if this is operating leverage or a one-off item. Quarterly net margins are expanding (7% → 14%) — profitability per rupee of revenue is improving.
How today's P/E compares to the stock's own historical range. Dashed line = the 3.6y median.
Promoters hold 71.9% — heavily owner-operated with strong skin in the game.
