A high-quality, stagnant business, trading cheap versus its own history.
Expleo Solutions is scored on the it / services framework. It keeps a healthy 10.8% of every rupee of sales as net profit. Cash broadly tracks reported profit (CFO/PAT 0.96×). It throws off free cash worth 11.8% of its market value — a strong free-cash yield.
Over the last 3 years revenue compounded at 8%/yr and profit at -3%/yr. Book value has grown 14%/yr. Return on equity is a healthy 16.0%. In the latest quarter profit fell 18% versus the prior quarter.
At 10× earnings, the stock sits at the 9th 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.

Revenue has grown every year across all 4 financial years shown. 8% CAGR — growing but slowly.
Revenue is outpacing profit (8% vs -3%) — costs are rising faster than the top line.
Operating margin has compressed from 20% to 14% — costs or competition are eating into profitability. Interest or tax burden is shrinking — more of the operating profit is reaching the bottom line.
ROE at 16% — a respectable return on shareholder capital. Capital efficiency declining — ROE down 9pp.
-3% 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. Financing outflows in consecutive years — balance-sheet discipline through debt repayment or dividends.
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 (3% spread) — a predictable, non-seasonal revenue stream.
Profit fell 18% QoQ — one-quarter drops can be noise, but a pattern matters. Quarterly margins are compressing (13% → 11%) — more revenue isn't translating to proportionally more profit.
How today's P/E compares to the stock's own historical range. Dashed line = the 3.6y median.
Promoters hold 71.0% — heavily owner-operated with strong skin in the game.
