Answers

Simple answers to the questions investors ask most, from the company's own numbers.

How fast it has been growing

Our sales figures for this company step up at Mar 2019 and we hold nothing that says why, so we cannot honestly quote a growth rate across it.

Whether it grew faster than its sector

Our sales figures for this company step up at Mar 2019 and we hold nothing that says why, so there is no honest growth rate of its own to set against its sector.

Room to re-rate, or risk of de-rating

At 32.5× earnings against a market that pays 24.1× across 2199 companies we can price. Its own industry sits at 36.6×, across 4 companies. It is against its own five-year median of 40.7×, the 21st percentile of its own range.

Whether growth justifies the valuation

Its earnings are falling, so growth cannot justify the price.

Compared with companies filed under the same label. That grouping comes from the exchange's filing category, so some of them may not be real rivals.

How it compares with its peers

Against companies the exchange files under the same label (Other Food Products), it ranks 5 of 5 on returns, 3 of 5 on growth, 5 of 5 on margin. That grouping comes from the exchange's filing category, so some of them may not be real rivals.

What makes it hard to beat — and is that still true?

No durable advantage shows in the numbers: it earns 11.6% on capital, ahead of 0% of companies filed under the same label. That grouping comes from the exchange's filing category, so some of them may not be real rivals.

Whether its growth pays for itself

No — Over the last five years it made ₹72 crore of cash from the business but spent ₹144 crore on plant and equipment, ₹72 crore more than it made; the gap was mostly borrowed — borrowings rose from ₹34 crore to ₹131 crore. And the profit is real: of every 100 rupees it reported over 8 years, about 149 arrived as cash (before interest, which is why it can exceed the profit). Its cash comes back faster than it used to: it went from being waiting 17 days for its cash to waiting 4 days for its cash.
