Weekly engine runs — movement reflects the numbers, not analyst opinion.
A decent, fast-growing business, trading cheap versus its own history.
Usha Martin Education & Solutions is scored on the it / services framework. It keeps a fat 42.9% of every rupee of sales as net profit. Those profits are backed by real cash — operating cash flow runs 1.15× reported profit. Free cash flow is worth about 4.3% of its market value.
Over the last 3 years revenue compounded at 4%/yr and profit at 87%/yr. Net worth has actually shrunk (-44%/yr) — value is not being built. Return on equity is a healthy 16.1%. In the latest quarter profit fell 90% versus the prior quarter.
At 29× earnings, the stock sits at the 1st percentile of its own 3.6-year range — the cheap end of where it has historically traded. Today's price implies ~13%/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 declined 7% in the latest year — a break from prior trajectory. 4% CAGR — growing but slowly.
Net profit has risen every year — the hallmark of a compounder. Profit is growing faster than revenue (87% vs 4%) — margin expansion is at work.
Operating margin has expanded from 10% to 44% — the business is keeping more of each rupee earned.
ROE at 16% — a respectable return on shareholder capital. ROE powered by fat margins — the hallmark of a high-quality franchise with pricing power. Capital efficiency improving — ROE up 16pp across the window.
EPS has grown every year — each share earns more than the last, consistently. EPS outpaced profit growth — possible buybacks are concentrating earnings into fewer shares. 96% 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. 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 fell 64% QoQ — could be seasonality or a genuine slowdown. Wide quarterly swings (64% spread) — likely seasonality, lumpy orders, or project-based revenue.
Profit fell 90% QoQ — one-quarter drops can be noise, but a pattern matters. Quarterly margins are compressing (41% → 17%) — more revenue isn't translating to proportionally more profit.
How today's P/E compares to the stock's own historical range. Dashed line = the 3.6y median.
Promoters at 39.8% — dispersed ownership; institutional flows drive the stock.
