STC strengths

What Salt Trading Corporation's own accounts show in its favour, graded against the rest of its sector.

Sales grew 30.3% on last year, so more customers are buying or prices have risen. (Growth)
Profit grew 116.6% on last year, and it is growing faster than most costs. (Growth)
Earns 25.2% on the money tied up in the business, a good sign that capital is well spent. (Profitability)
Holds cash worth 24.3% of everything it owns, a useful buffer for a difficult year. (Liquidity)
What the company owns grew 40.8%, which usually means it is investing to get bigger. (Growth)
Buildings and machinery are a modest 10.7% of assets, so it is not tied to heavy fixed costs. (Efficiency)
Every rupee of assets brings in 0.7x of sales, so the company gets good use from what it owns. (Efficiency)

STC weaknesses

What the same accounts show against it. Both lists are computed from the filed figures, not opinion, and are not advice.

Net profit margin is 1.1%, less than most of its peers keep once every cost is paid. (Margins)
Only 7.3% of each sale survives production costs, leaving little to cover everything else. (Margins)
Return on everything it owns is 0.5%, so its assets are sitting relatively idle. (Profitability)
Return on shareholders' money is 3.9%, less than most savers would expect. (Profitability)
Operating margin is 2.3%, so running costs take too much of what the core business earns. (Margins)
Only 12.1% of what it owns was paid for by shareholders, the rest is funded by debt. (Leverage & Solvency)
EBIT margin is 4.2%, below what most of its peers earn before interest and tax. (Profitability)
Short term bills are covered only 0.83x over, so a slow month could squeeze cash. (Liquidity)
Interest cover is 1.73x, so a bad year could make loans hard to service. (Leverage & Solvency)
Without selling stock, bills are covered only 0.46x over, so it depends on shifting inventory. (Liquidity)
Shareholders' stake moved 0.9% over the year, so value is not accumulating. (Shareholder Returns)
Stock turns over 1.94x a year, so cash stays tied up in unsold goods. (Efficiency)
Debt sits at 1.52x of shareholders' money. Heavy borrowing leaves profits exposed to interest costs. (Leverage & Solvency)
