Weekly engine runs — movement reflects the numbers, not analyst opinion.
A decent, fast-growing business, trading cheap versus its own history — but flagged on governance.
DJ Mediaprint is scored on the general / industrial framework. It keeps a slim 7.9% of every rupee of sales as net profit. Cash conversion lags the reported profit (CFO/PAT -1.34×) — worth a closer look. Free cash flow is worth about -8.0% of its market value.
Over the last 2 years revenue compounded at 56%/yr and profit at 47%/yr. Book value itself has compounded 66%/yr — the hallmark of a genuine compounder. Return on equity is a healthy 12.1%. In the latest quarter profit fell 61% versus the prior quarter.
At 23× earnings, the stock sits at the 12th percentile of its own 2.6-year range — the cheap end of where it has historically traded. Today's price implies ~10%/yr earnings growth for a decade. The forensic screen raises a red flag: Only ₹-0.74 of cash per ₹1 profit over 3 years — earnings not converting to cash.

Revenue has grown every year across all 3 financial years shown. 55% CAGR over 2 years — high-growth territory. Growth is accelerating — latest year outpaced the prior year's rate.
Net profit has risen every year — the hallmark of a compounder. Revenue is outpacing profit (55% vs 47%) — costs are rising faster than the top line. The latest year saw a +62% swing — check if it's a one-off or structural.
Operating margins have been stable around 11% — no major structural shift.
ROE at 12% — modest; the capital isn't working hard. Low variance across years — a predictable business that earns steadily on its equity base.
Profit grew faster than EPS (47% vs -17%) — share dilution is eroding per-share value. -17% EPS CAGR — this is the rate at which each share's claim on earnings is compounding.
2 of 3 years had negative operating cash flow — profitability on paper may not translate to cash. 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 fell 31% QoQ — could be seasonality or a genuine slowdown. Wide quarterly swings (48% spread) — likely seasonality, lumpy orders, or project-based revenue. Run-rate stepping up — recent quarters average 49% above earlier ones.
Profit fell 61% 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 2.6y median.
Promoter holding at 56.3% — majority control intact.
