Weekly engine runs — movement reflects the numbers, not analyst opinion.
A decent, fast-growing business, trading cheap versus its own history.
Medplus Health is scored on the pharma / healthcare framework. It keeps a thin 3.1% of every rupee of sales as net profit. Those profits are backed by real cash — operating cash flow runs 2.46× reported profit. Free cash flow is worth about 3.1% of its market value.
Over the last 3 years revenue compounded at 15%/yr and profit at 64%/yr. Book value has grown 10%/yr. Return on equity is a modest 10.2%. In the latest quarter profit grew 69% versus the prior quarter.
At 33× earnings, the stock sits at the 2nd percentile of its own 3.6-year range — the cheap end of where it has historically traded. Today's price implies ~16%/yr earnings growth for a decade. The books come through clean — a forensic grade of A, and Altman puts distress risk in the safe zone.

Revenue has grown every year across all 4 financial years shown. 15% CAGR over 3 years — steady double-digit compounder.
Net profit has risen every year — the hallmark of a compounder. Profit is growing faster than revenue (64% vs 15%) — margin expansion is at work. The latest year saw a +46% swing — check if it's a one-off or structural.
Operating margin has expanded from 1% to 4% — the business is keeping more of each rupee earned.
ROE at 11% — modest; the capital isn't working hard. Capital efficiency improving — ROE up 8pp across the window.
EPS has grown every year — each share earns more than the last, consistently. 64% 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 2.5× 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 8% sequentially — momentum is building.
Profit jumped 69% QoQ — check if this is operating leverage or a one-off item.
