Weekly engine runs — movement reflects the numbers, not analyst opinion.
A weak business, trading cheap versus its own history.
Kabra Extrusion Technik is scored on the general / industrial framework. It keeps a thin -1.1% of every rupee of sales as net profit. Free cash flow is worth about 0.1% of its market value.
Book value has grown 5%/yr. Return on equity is a weak 0.8%.
At 21× earnings, the stock sits at the 1st percentile of its own 3-year range — the cheap end of where it has historically traded. Today's price already implies ~60%/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.

Revenue declined 3% in the latest year — a break from prior trajectory. Negative CAGR — the top line has shrunk over this window. Growth is accelerating — latest year outpaced the prior year's rate.
1 of the 4 years shown had a loss — profitability is inconsistent. The latest year saw a -117% swing — check if it's a one-off or structural.
Operating margin has compressed from 8% to -2% — costs or competition are eating into profitability. Interest or tax burden is shrinking — more of the operating profit is reaching the bottom line.
Negative ROE — the business is destroying shareholder value. Capital efficiency declining — ROE down 11pp.
EPS dropped in the latest year despite possible profit changes — dilution or a profit dip could be at play. Profit grew faster than EPS (-7% vs -11%) — share dilution is eroding per-share value. -11% 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. Heavy investing spend every year, but operations generate enough to cover it — the business self-funds its growth.
When operating cash keeps pace with reported profit, earnings are cash-backed; a persistent shortfall is a quality flag.
Revenue rose 80% sequentially — momentum is building. Wide quarterly swings (50% spread) — likely seasonality, lumpy orders, or project-based revenue. Run-rate stepping up — recent quarters average 40% above earlier ones.
2 of 4 quarters loss-making — quarterly profitability is uneven. Profit jumped 328% QoQ — check if this is operating leverage or a one-off item. Quarterly net margins are expanding (-4% → 2%) — profitability per rupee of revenue is improving.
How today's P/E compares to the stock's own historical range. Dashed line = the 3y median.
Promoter holding at 59.5% — majority control intact. Promoters reduced 1.0pp over 4 quarters — watch whether this is planned divestment or pledge invocations.
