Winmark Corporation (WINA) on Decifer

Decifer ranks WINA number 97 of 265 tracked names on durable business quality.

Why it ranks here

• It earns strong returns on the money it puts to work, around 223% and those returns have been improving and it turns most of its profit into real cash.
• Revenue is expected to grow about 6% a year, profits grew 3% over the past year, and growth is speeding up, not slowing down.
• It keeps a high share of every sale as profit, and that has stayed steady over the years, a sign of real pricing power.
• 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 93% above similar companies, and its growth does not yet back up that price.
• Remarkable 223% returns are offset by 6% expected revenue growth, a 93% premium, momentum of 1 out of 35, and no funded role so quality is priced out.

The current read

Themes
