Weekly engine runs — movement reflects the numbers, not analyst opinion.
A high-quality, slow-growing business, reasonably priced.
Shree Oswal Synthetics is scored on the general / industrial framework. It keeps a thin 2.9% of every rupee of sales as net profit. Cash conversion lags the reported profit (CFO/PAT -1.90×) — worth a closer look. Free cash flow is worth about -13.8% of its market value.
Over the last 3 years revenue compounded at -3%/yr and profit at 8%/yr. Book value has grown 5%/yr. Return on equity is a healthy 14.2%. In the latest quarter profit grew 482% versus the prior quarter.
At 14× earnings, the stock sits at the 28th percentile of its own 2.6-year range — the middle of where it has historically traded. Today's price asks for only ~-3%/yr growth over a decade — undemanding expectations. The books come through clean — a forensic grade of A, and Altman puts distress risk in the safe zone.

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 +105% swing — check if it's a one-off or structural.
Operating margins have been stable around 4% — no major structural shift.
ROE at 14% — a respectable return on shareholder capital.
Profit grew faster than EPS (12% vs -54%) — share dilution is eroding per-share value. -54% 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. Investing outflows exceed operating cash — the company relies on external funding to finance expansion.
When operating cash keeps pace with reported profit, earnings are cash-backed; a persistent shortfall is a quality flag.
Revenue rose 108% sequentially — momentum is building. Wide quarterly swings (66% spread) — likely seasonality, lumpy orders, or project-based revenue. Run-rate stepping up — recent quarters average 84% above earlier ones.
1 of 4 quarters loss-making — quarterly profitability is uneven. Profit jumped 482% QoQ — check if this is operating leverage or a one-off item. Quarterly net margins are expanding (-8% → 10%) — profitability per rupee of revenue is improving.
How today's P/E compares to the stock's own historical range. Dashed line = the 2.6y median.
Promoters hold 70.0% — heavily owner-operated with strong skin in the game. Promoters added 3.4pp over 4 quarters — creeping acquisition signals conviction.
