Superhouse Limited is an India-based company, which is engaged in the manufacturing and exporting leather, leather goods and textile goods. The Company’s businesses include footwear articles for men, women, and children; safety footwear; leather accessories; safety wear, and…
A middling, stagnant business, priced for perfection — but flagged on governance.
Superhouse is scored on the consumer / fmcg framework. It keeps a thin 0.1% of every rupee of sales as net profit. Those profits are backed by real cash — operating cash flow runs 89.37× reported profit. It throws off free cash worth 31.8% of its market value — a strong free-cash yield.
Over the last 3 years revenue compounded at -4%/yr and profit at -72%/yr. Book value has been broadly flat (2.6%/yr). Return on equity is a weak 0.8%.
At 52× earnings, the stock sits at the 86th percentile of its own 3.6-year range — the expensive end of where it has historically traded. Today's price implies ~10%/yr earnings growth for a decade. The forensic screen raises a red flag: 86% of pre-tax profit is other income, not operations.

Negative CAGR — the top line has shrunk over this window.
Revenue is outpacing profit (-4% vs -72%) — costs are rising faster than the top line. The latest year saw a -91% swing — check if it's a one-off or structural.
Operating margin has compressed from 5% to 1% — costs or competition are eating into profitability. Margins have declined for 3 consecutive years — watch for a structural cost problem.
ROE at 0% — 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. EPS outpaced profit growth — possible buybacks are concentrating earnings into fewer shares. -51% 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 89.4× 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 9% sequentially — momentum is building. Run-rate fading — recent quarters 13% below earlier ones.
1 of 4 quarters loss-making — quarterly profitability is uneven. Profit jumped 225% QoQ — check if this is operating leverage or a one-off item.
How today's P/E compares to the stock's own historical range. Dashed line = the 3.6y median.
Promoter holding at 54.9% — majority control intact.
