Revenue is on a 2-year growth streak. 9% CAGR — growing but slowly. Growth is decelerating — latest year grew slower than the year before.
Revenue is outpacing profit (9% vs -25%) — costs are rising faster than the top line. The latest year saw a +89% swing — check if it's a one-off or structural.
Operating margin has compressed from 34% to 10% — costs or competition are eating into profitability. Interest or tax burden is shrinking — more of the operating profit is reaching the bottom line. Margins have declined for 3 consecutive years — watch for a structural cost problem.
ROE at 1% — modest; the capital isn't working hard.
Profit grew faster than EPS (-25% vs -29%) — share dilution is eroding per-share value. -29% EPS CAGR — this is the rate at which each share's claim on earnings is compounding.
3 of 4 years had negative operating cash flow — profitability on paper may not translate to cash. Cash conversion at 0.4× PAT — reported profit isn't translating into cash, raising earnings quality questions. 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 rose 24% sequentially — momentum is building. Run-rate fading — recent quarters 9% below earlier ones.
1 of 4 quarters loss-making — quarterly profitability is uneven. Profit jumped 186% QoQ — check if this is operating leverage or a one-off item. Quarterly net margins are expanding (6% → 35%) — 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 just 26.4% — widely held; sentiment-driven.
