Weekly engine runs — movement reflects the numbers, not analyst opinion.
A middling, steadily growing business, reasonably priced — but flagged on governance.
Marathon Nextgen Realt is scored on the general / industrial framework. It keeps a fat 29.5% of every rupee of sales as net profit. Cash conversion lags the reported profit (CFO/PAT -0.29×) — worth a closer look. Free cash flow is worth about -12.9% of its market value.
Over the last 3 years revenue compounded at -6%/yr and profit at 19%/yr. Book value itself has compounded 43%/yr — the hallmark of a genuine compounder. Return on equity is a weak 7.3%. In the latest quarter profit grew 11% versus the prior quarter.
At 12× earnings, the stock sits at the 20th percentile of its own 3.6-year range — the cheap end of where it has historically traded. Today's price implies ~5%/yr earnings growth for a decade. The forensic screen raises 2 red flags: 58% of pre-tax profit is other income, not operations; Share count up 34% over 4 years — heavy equity dilution.

Revenue declined 6% in the latest year — a break from prior trajectory. Negative CAGR — the top line has shrunk over this window.
Net profit has risen every year — the hallmark of a compounder. Profit is growing faster than revenue (19% vs -6%) — margin expansion is at work.
Operating margin has expanded from 21% to 39% — the business is keeping more of each rupee earned. The gap between operating and net margin is widening — interest or tax costs are rising.
ROE at 8% — modest; the capital isn't working hard. Capital efficiency declining — ROE down 6pp.
EPS dropped in the latest year despite possible profit changes — dilution or a profit dip could be at play. Profit grew faster than EPS (19% vs 8%) — share dilution is eroding per-share value. 8% EPS CAGR — this is the rate at which each share's claim on earnings is compounding.
2 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 43% sequentially — momentum is building. Wide quarterly swings (35% spread) — likely seasonality, lumpy orders, or project-based revenue. Run-rate stepping up — recent quarters average 25% above earlier ones.
Profit jumped 11% QoQ — check if this is operating leverage or a one-off item. Quarterly margins are compressing (41% → 23%) — 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.
Promoter holding at 56.4% — majority control intact. FIIs trimmed 2.5pp — foreign money is rotating out.
