Weekly engine runs — movement reflects the numbers, not analyst opinion.
A decent, stagnant business, fully valued.
Yasho Industries is scored on the general / industrial framework. It keeps a thin 3.0% of every rupee of sales as net profit. Those profits are backed by real cash — operating cash flow runs 5.99× reported profit. Free cash flow is worth about 1.9% of its market value.
Over the last 3 years revenue compounded at 7%/yr and profit at -28%/yr. Book value itself has compounded 23%/yr — the hallmark of a genuine compounder. Return on equity is a healthy 16.9%. In the latest quarter profit fell 7% versus the prior quarter.
At 165× earnings, the stock sits at the 62nd percentile of its own 3.2-year range — the middle of where it has historically traded. Today's price already implies ~21%/yr earnings growth sustained for a decade — a demanding bar. The books come through clean — a forensic grade of A, and Altman puts distress risk in the safe zone.

7% CAGR — growing but slowly. Growth is accelerating — latest year outpaced the prior year's rate.
Revenue is outpacing profit (7% vs -28%) — costs are rising faster than the top line. The latest year saw a +313% swing — check if it's a one-off or structural.
Operating margin has compressed from 13% to 4% — costs or competition are eating into profitability. Interest or tax burden is shrinking — more of the operating profit is reaching the bottom line. Margins have declined for 2 consecutive years — watch for a structural cost problem.
ROE at 6% — modest; the capital isn't working hard. Capital efficiency declining — ROE down 23pp.
-29% 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. Cash conversion at 6.0× PAT — earnings are well-backed by cash; strong accrual quality. Heavy investing spend every year, but operations generate enough to cover it — the business self-funds its growth.
When operating cash keeps pace with reported profit, earnings are cash-backed; a persistent shortfall is a quality flag.
Revenue rose 13% sequentially — momentum is building. Wide quarterly swings (42% spread) — likely seasonality, lumpy orders, or project-based revenue. Run-rate stepping up — recent quarters average 46% above earlier ones.
Quarterly net margins are expanding (2% → 10%) — profitability per rupee of revenue is improving.
How today's P/E compares to the stock's own historical range. Dashed line = the 3.2y median.
Promoters hold 67.9% — heavily owner-operated with strong skin in the game.
