Acadian Asset Management (AAMI) on Decifer

Decifer ranks AAMI number 142 of 265 tracked names on durable business quality.

Why it ranks here

• It earns strong returns on the money it puts to work, around 24% and those returns have been improving and it turns most of its profit into real cash.
• Revenue is growing about 18% a year and profits are expected to grow 21%.
• It keeps a high share of every sale as profit.
• It is riding an active market tailwind and has the balance sheet to fund its growth.
• It is not watering down its owners with new shares and it returns cash to shareholders.
• It trades about 25% above similar companies, and its growth does not yet back up that price.
• 66 quality with 24 percent returns is okay but no growth role and 25 momentum in a lagging sector kills the investable case.
