Weekly engine runs — movement reflects the numbers, not analyst opinion.
A high-quality, fast-growing business, trading cheap versus its own history.
Everest Kanto Cylinder is scored on the general / industrial framework. It keeps a slim 9.8% of every rupee of sales as net profit. Cash broadly tracks reported profit (CFO/PAT 0.97×). Free cash flow is worth about -5.0% of its market value.
Over the last 3 years revenue compounded at 5%/yr and profit at 25%/yr. Book value has grown 12%/yr. Return on equity is a modest 10.5%. In the latest quarter profit fell 34% versus the prior quarter.
At 8× earnings, the stock sits at the 4th percentile of its own 3.6-year range — the cheap end of where it has historically traded. Today's price asks for only ~-2%/yr growth over a decade — undemanding expectations. The books come through clean — a forensic grade of A, and Altman puts distress risk in the safe zone.

5% CAGR — growing but slowly. Growth is decelerating — latest year grew slower than the year before.
Profit is growing faster than revenue (25% vs 5%) — margin expansion is at work. The latest year saw a +50% swing — check if it's a one-off or structural.
Operating margin has expanded from 7% to 11% — the business is keeping more of each rupee earned.
ROE at 10% — modest; the capital isn't working hard. Low variance across years — a predictable business that earns steadily on its equity base.
24% 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. Investing outflows exceed operating cash — the company relies on external funding to finance expansion. 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 (5% spread) — a predictable, non-seasonal revenue stream.
Profit fell 34% QoQ — one-quarter drops can be noise, but a pattern matters. Quarterly net margins are expanding (4% → 8%) — 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 67.4% — heavily owner-operated with strong skin in the game.
