Weekly engine runs — movement reflects the numbers, not analyst opinion.
A decent, fast-growing business, priced for perfection — but flagged on governance.
Iris Clothings is scored on the general / industrial framework. It keeps a slim 8.5% of every rupee of sales as net profit. Cash conversion lags the reported profit (CFO/PAT -0.41×) — worth a closer look. Free cash flow is worth about -1.9% of its market value.
Over the last 3 years revenue compounded at 19%/yr and profit at 25%/yr. Book value itself has compounded 36%/yr — the hallmark of a genuine compounder. Return on equity is a modest 10.1%. In the latest quarter profit grew 27% versus the prior quarter.
At 69× earnings, the stock sits at the 96th percentile of its own 3.6-year range — the expensive end of where it has historically traded. Today's price already implies ~24%/yr earnings growth sustained for a decade — a demanding bar. The forensic screen raises a red flag: Only ₹-0.02 of cash per ₹1 profit over 4 years — earnings not converting to cash.

Revenue has grown every year across all 4 financial years shown. 19% CAGR over 3 years — steady double-digit compounder. Growth is accelerating — latest year outpaced the prior year's rate.
Net profit has risen every year — the hallmark of a compounder. Profit is growing faster than revenue (25% vs 19%) — margin expansion is at work.
Operating margin has expanded from 10% to 12% — the business is keeping more of each rupee earned.
ROE at 11% — modest; the capital isn't working hard.
Profit grew faster than EPS (25% vs -6%) — share dilution is eroding per-share value. -6% EPS CAGR — this is the rate at which each share's claim on earnings is compounding.
1 of 4 years had negative operating cash flow — profitability on paper may not translate to cash.
When operating cash keeps pace with reported profit, earnings are cash-backed; a persistent shortfall is a quality flag.
Revenue rose 32% sequentially — momentum is building.
Profit jumped 27% 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 3.6y median.
Promoter holding at 58.8% — majority control intact. Promoters reduced 2.4pp over 4 quarters — watch whether this is planned divestment or pledge invocations.
