Growth Rate
AI Analysis — Bull vs Bear
Patanjali Foods Ltd has a market cap of ₹38,035 Cr and trades at a PE of 21.2x with a PB of 2.93x. The company delivered 55% TTM profit growth and 24.3% profit CAGR over 5 years, but the stock has declined 41% over the past year and ROE remains modest at 12-16%.
- Strong TTM profit growth of 55% indicates significant earnings acceleration in the recent period
- 5-year compounded profit CAGR of 24.3% demonstrates sustained earnings growth over a longer horizon
- TTM sales growth of 18% shows improving revenue momentum after a 3-year CAGR of only 8%
- Healthy dividend payout ratio of 25.7% provides consistent shareholder returns with a current yield of 0.99%
- Last year ROE improved to 16% from the 3-year average of 12%, signaling improving capital efficiency
- 5-year compounded sales CAGR of 20% reflects the company's ability to scale revenues over medium-term cycles
- PE of 21.2x is not excessive for an FMCG company delivering 55% TTM profit growth, suggesting potential valuation headroom relative to growth
- Stock has declined 41% over the past 1 year, reflecting significant negative market sentiment and price destruction
- Promoter holding has decreased by 12.6% over last 3 years, indicating dilution or selling by insiders
- 3-year ROE averages only 12.3%, which is below par for a branded FMCG business at this valuation
- Stock trades at 2.93x book value despite delivering only 12-16% ROE, suggesting the valuation premium may not be fully justified by returns on capital
- Tax rate appears low, which may not be sustainable and could compress future net profits if normalized
- Company might be capitalizing interest costs, which could overstate reported profitability and asset values
- 10-year sales CAGR of only 4% suggests the underlying organic growth trajectory has been inconsistent despite recent acceleration
- 3-year stock CAGR of -6% and 5-year CAGR of -1% show the market has not rewarded shareholders over medium-term periods despite profit growth

The earnings momentum is clearly positive, and the upcoming earnings call on Aug 17 could provide further catalysts if management guidance remains upbeat.
