Weekly engine runs — movement reflects the numbers, not analyst opinion.
A middling business, fully valued — but flagged on governance.
Oriental Trimex is scored on the general / industrial framework. It keeps a slim 7.3% of every rupee of sales as net profit. Cash broadly tracks reported profit (CFO/PAT 0.81×). Free cash flow is worth about -2.0% of its market value.
Book value has grown 14%/yr. Return on equity is a weak 3.1%. In the latest quarter profit fell 38% versus the prior quarter.
At 14× earnings, the stock sits at the 77th percentile of its own 1.6-year range — the expensive end of where it has historically traded. Today's price implies ~8%/yr earnings growth for a decade. The forensic screen raises a red flag: 123% of pre-tax profit is other income, not operations.

40% CAGR over 3 years — high-growth territory. Growth is decelerating — latest year grew slower than the year before.
2 of the 4 years shown had a loss — profitability is inconsistent. The latest year saw a -79% swing — check if it's a one-off or structural.
Operating margin has expanded from -58% to 11% — 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 2% — modest; the capital isn't working hard. Capital efficiency improving — ROE up 8pp across the window.
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. -75% 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. Raising capital despite positive cash flow — could signal expansion plans or opportunistic fundraising.
When operating cash keeps pace with reported profit, earnings are cash-backed; a persistent shortfall is a quality flag.
Revenue fell 43% QoQ — could be seasonality or a genuine slowdown. Wide quarterly swings (77% spread) — likely seasonality, lumpy orders, or project-based revenue. Run-rate stepping up — recent quarters average 216% above earlier ones.
1 of 4 quarters loss-making — quarterly profitability is uneven. Profit fell 38% QoQ — one-quarter drops can be noise, but a pattern matters. Quarterly net margins are expanding (-6% → 10%) — profitability per rupee of revenue is improving.
How today's P/E compares to the stock's own historical range. Dashed line = the 1.6y median.
Promoters hold just 25.9% — widely held; sentiment-driven. Promoters reduced 1.4pp over 4 quarters — watch whether this is planned divestment or pledge invocations.
