Weekly engine runs — movement reflects the numbers, not analyst opinion.
A middling, stagnant business, fairly priced.
EXXARO TILES LIMITED is scored on the general / industrial framework. It keeps a thin 0.9% of every rupee of sales as net profit. Those profits are backed by real cash — operating cash flow runs 11.63× reported profit. Free cash flow is worth about 4.8% of its market value.
Over the last 3 years revenue compounded at -2%/yr and profit at -27%/yr. Book value has been broadly flat (0.7%/yr). Return on equity is a weak 2.1%. In the latest quarter profit grew 48% versus the prior quarter.
At 105× earnings, the stock sits at the 46th percentile of its own 2.6-year range — the middle of where it has historically traded. Today's price already implies ~21%/yr earnings growth sustained for a decade — a demanding bar. The books come through clean — a forensic grade of A, and Altman puts distress risk in the safe zone.

Negative CAGR — the top line has shrunk over this window.
1 of the 4 years shown had a loss — profitability is inconsistent. The latest year saw a +2458% swing — check if it's a one-off or structural.
Operating margin has compressed from 3% to 1% — costs or competition are eating into profitability. Margins have declined for 2 consecutive years — watch for a structural cost problem.
ROE at 1% — 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 (-38% vs -81%) — share dilution is eroding per-share value. -81% 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 11.6× PAT — earnings are well-backed by cash; strong accrual quality. 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 rose 31% sequentially — momentum is building. Wide quarterly swings (37% spread) — likely seasonality, lumpy orders, or project-based revenue. Run-rate stepping up — recent quarters average 16% above earlier ones.
Profit jumped 48% 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 2.6y median.
Promoters at 42.1% — dispersed ownership; institutional flows drive the stock.
