Weekly engine runs — movement reflects the numbers, not analyst opinion.
A middling, steadily growing business, reasonably priced — but flagged on governance.
OM INFRA is scored on the general / industrial framework. It keeps a thin 4.0% of every rupee of sales as net profit. Cash conversion lags the reported profit (CFO/PAT -0.21×) — worth a closer look. Free cash flow is worth about -3.5% of its market value.
Over the last 3 years revenue compounded at -15%/yr and profit at 17%/yr. Book value has grown 4%/yr. Return on equity is a weak 2.7%. In the latest quarter profit grew 77% versus the prior quarter.
At 33× earnings, the stock sits at the 36th percentile of its own 3.6-year range — the middle of where it has historically traded. Today's price implies ~9%/yr earnings growth for a decade. The forensic screen raises a red flag: 81% of pre-tax profit is other income, not operations.

Revenue declined 31% in the latest year — a break from prior trajectory. Negative CAGR — the top line has shrunk over this window.
Profit is growing faster than revenue (17% vs -15%) — margin expansion is at work. The latest year saw a -43% swing — check if it's a one-off or structural.
Operating margins have been stable around 4% — no major structural shift. Interest or tax burden is shrinking — more of the operating profit is reaching the bottom line.
ROE at 3% — modest; the capital isn't working hard. Low variance across years — a predictable business that earns steadily on its equity base.
EPS dropped in the latest year despite possible profit changes — dilution or a profit dip could be at play. EPS outpaced profit growth — possible buybacks are concentrating earnings into fewer shares. 24% 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 fell 23% QoQ — could be seasonality or a genuine slowdown. Run-rate stepping up — recent quarters average 20% above earlier ones.
Profit jumped 77% QoQ — check if this is operating leverage or a one-off item. Quarterly net margins are expanding (6% → 9%) — 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 67.0% — heavily owner-operated with strong skin in the game.
