Virtuoso Optoelectronics Ltd

Price story Before the numbers, the tape. A stock price moves through four repeating seasons: a flat base (stage 1), an advance (2), a top (3), a decline (4). Where the price sits in that cycle frames everything below.

Virtuoso Optoelectronics Ltd trades at ₹469, in a downtrend and 31 weeks into that stage. That is +18.2% against its own 200-day average. It sits at 77% of a 52-week range of ₹270 to ₹529. On relative strength it has been ahead of the NIFTY 500 on a trailing-13-week view for 8 straight weeks.

Today the stock is in a downtrend — week 31 of stage 4, confirmed. At ₹469 it trades +18.2% versus its 200-day average and sits at 77% of its 52-week range (₹270–₹529).

Against the market, two honest reads. Cumulative: over the last 3.8 years the stock moved +287% while the NIFTY 500 moved +52% — ahead of the index over the full window. Recent form: on a trailing-13-week view the stock has been ahead for 8 straight weeks — the ribbon below is that same metric, week by week.

What would end the trend, mechanically: two Friday closes in a row below the 200-day line. That is the exit rule — no debates.

→ The trend is one thing; the bill is another. Are you paying up for it? Next: the P/E sits at the 43rd percentile of its own range.

Valuation P/E is the price of ₹1 of annual profit: how many rupees the market pays for each rupee the company earns in a year.

Virtuoso Optoelectronics Ltd trades at 99.4× P/E, mid-range by its own standards (43rd percentile). Its long-run median P/E is 103.2×, measured across 2.1 years of weekly readings. This places the multiple against the stock’s own record, and says nothing about what the business is worth.

Today's P/E of 99.4× is mid-range by its own standards (43rd percentile), against a long-run median of 103.2× measured over 2.1 years of weekly readings. This is a comparison against the stock's own history — not a claim about what it is worth.

Why the multiple sits where it does: over the past year annual EPS moved −1.3% against a −5.7% price move — earnings outran the price, pushing the multiple DOWN its own range.

Put together: the multiple is unremarkable against its own past, so the story rests on the earnings line underneath it, not the multiple.

→ Cheap or dear rides on the earnings. Are they actually growing? Next: the fundamental stage — where the business sits in its arc, and how growth has compounded.

Stage: No read Every business sits somewhere on a fundamental arc, and this page names the spot before anything else. The last twelve quarters of revenue, profit and EPS growth — plus the return the business earns on its capital — are read as curves: Deteriorating (the curves are falling), Turning around (a trough has just formed and the last few quarters lift off it), Improving (the climb off the trough is sustained), Consistent (steadily positive with healthy returns), Topping out (still high but decelerating from the peak). When the curves genuinely disagree the read is Mixed; too little history is No read. CAGR (compound annual growth rate) is the smooth yearly pace that turns the starting value into the latest one — the fairest way to compare growth across different time spans. Read the columns together: if the 1-year number towers over the 10-year, recent growth is running hotter than the long-run trend. A dash means that window is not held, or the base year was a loss (where a growth rate is not meaningful).

Virtuoso Optoelectronics Ltd reads as no read on its fundamental arc. Under eight usable quarters on the growth trio — not enough history for an honest trajectory read.

Why it matters: with too little history, an honest page says so instead of guessing a trajectory.

Return readings here are annual, not quarterly — read as level and direction only; they can confirm the growth curves but never drive the stage on their own.

Fewer than eight usable quarters on the growth curves — this page will not guess a trajectory from a stub of history.

→ The stage names the trajectory. Next: the revenue line that produces it, quarter by quarter.

4-Factor Sector Score

No sector-relative score — Virtuoso Optoelectronics Ltd is not present in the sector comparison for Consumer Electronics - EMS.

The score is a rank WITHIN a peer set: every metric is scored by percentile against the other members. Without the peer set there is no score to state, so none is invented here.

Revenue Revenue is the top line: everything the company billed its customers in the period.

Virtuoso Optoelectronics Ltd reported ₹317 Cr of revenue in the Mar 26 quarter, +32.0% year on year. Over 2 years it has compounded at 24.6% a year. The last full year, FY26, came in at ₹824 Cr. The last four reported quarters add to ₹824 Cr.

FY26 revenue came in at ₹824 Cr (+18.2% on the year), capping 2 years at 24.6% compound. The latest quarter (Mar 26) printed ₹317 Cr, +32.0% year on year.

Pace check: the last four quarters averaged +32.0% growth against the decade's 24.6% — the current year is running faster than its own long-run rate.

→ Revenue grew — did margins hold as it scaled? Next: 9.2% this quarter (+1.3 pp YoY).

Operating margin Operating margin is what is left of every ₹100 of sales after running the business, before interest and tax. It is the cleanest read on pricing power and cost control.

Virtuoso Optoelectronics Ltd's operating margin is 9.2% in the Mar 26 quarter, +1.3 percentage points against the same quarter a year ago. Across 3 fiscal years the operating margin has ranged 8.0% to 10.0%. The current quarter sits inside that band.

Virtuoso Optoelectronics Ltd's operating margin is 9.2% in the Mar 26 quarter, +1.3 percentage points against the same quarter a year ago. Across 3 fiscal years the operating margin has ranged 8.0% to 10.0%. The current quarter sits inside that band.

The latest quarter's operating margin is 9.2%, +1.3 pp against the same quarter a year ago. Across 3 fiscal years the operating margin has ranged 8.0%–10.0%.

Why the margin moved: operating margin went +1.3 pp year on year while gross margin went −0.5 pp — the gain came mostly below the gross line: operating leverage, with costs spread over a bigger revenue base.

→ Margins held — did that reach the bottom line? Next: profit +84.6% in the latest quarter.

Net profit Net profit is what survives every cost, interest and tax — the number EPS, dividends and book value all grow from.

Virtuoso Optoelectronics Ltd earned ₹4.5 Cr of net profit in the Mar 26 quarter, +84.6% year on year. Full-year FY26 profit was ₹15.0 Cr. The 2-year compound rate is 22.5%. That is 1.4% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier earned ₹2.4 Cr.

Mar 26 profit was ₹4.5 Cr, +84.6% year on year. On the full year, FY26 printed ₹15.0 Cr (+7.1%), and the 2-year compound rate is 22.5%.

→ Profit rose — but did the cash follow? Next: 123% of the last 3 years' profit arrived as cash.

Cash flow — the router The P&L says what was earned; the cash-flow statement says what actually arrived. Operating cash flow (CFO) against profit is the cleanest lie detector in the accounts.

Over the last 3 fiscal years 123% of Virtuoso Optoelectronics Ltd's reported profit arrived as operating cash — the cash follows the profit. In FY26 that was ₹3.0 Cr of operating cash against ₹15.0 Cr of profit. After ₹261 Cr of capital spending, ₹−258 Cr was left as free cash.

FY26: operating cash of ₹3.0 Cr against reported profit of ₹15.0 Cr, leaving free cash of ₹−258 Cr after ₹261 Cr of capital spending. Across the last 3 fiscal years the conversion rate is 123% of profit.

Cash-flow readings here are annual — that is the resolution our series carries, so this section moves once a year.

Why conversion sits at 123%: the cash cycle held roughly steady between FY24 and FY26 — so conversion tracks profitability rather than the cycle.

Router verdict: the bigger cash user is investment — capital spending ran 10.3× depreciation over three years, so the next section's job is to check what that build-out is buying.

→ So follow the cash to where it goes. Next: ₹390 Cr of building over 2 years.

Where the cash goes Working capital is the cash tied up between paying suppliers and getting paid: debtor days (customers owe), inventory days (stock waits), and the cash conversion cycle (the whole loop, in days of sales).

Virtuoso Optoelectronics Ltd's cash conversion cycle runs 72 days in FY26, up from 70 days in FY24. Capital spending ran ₹390 Cr over the last 2 years. At FY26 sales of ₹824 Cr each day of that cycle holds about ₹2.3 Cr, so roughly ₹163 Cr sits inside the business at any moment.

FY26: debtors at 32 days, inventory at 120 days — roughly 3.9 months of stock waiting to sell; that is where the cash sits while it waits — for a full cycle of 72 days, looser than FY24's 70.

The full loop: cash goes out to suppliers and production on day 0; stock waits 120 days to sell; customers pay about 32 days after that; and suppliers themselves are paid at 79 days — netting out to the 72-day cycle.

In money terms: at FY26 sales of ₹824 Cr, each day of the cycle holds about ₹2.3 Cr — so the 72-day loop keeps roughly ₹163 Cr sitting inside the business at any moment.

On the investment side: capital spending of ₹390 Cr over the last 2 fiscal years against ₹38.0 Cr of depreciation — the company is building well ahead of wear-and-tear. Capital work-in-progress stands at ₹38.0 Cr (FY26) — capacity paid for but not yet earning.

The synthesis: the cash is going into capacity, not disappearing into the cycle — the question becomes whether the new capacity earns.

→ Does all this activity actually earn its cost of capital? Next: ROCE is 10%.

Return on capital Return on capital employed (ROCE) is the profit the whole business earns on all the money in it — equity and debt together. It is the single best test of whether growth creates value or just size.

Virtuoso Optoelectronics Ltd earns a ROCE of 10% in FY26. A return-on-invested-capital spread against the cost of capital is not computable from what is held here. The wiring behind it is 1.8% net margin on 0.85× asset turns.

FY26 ROCE is 10%.

Why the return is what it is — the wiring (FY26): 1.8% net margin × 0.85× asset turns × 2.35× balance-sheet leverage ≈ 3.6% on equity. Margin does its share; leverage is a meaningful part of the equation.

→ Returns like these — is the balance sheet borrowing to make them? Next: debt-to-equity is 0.84.

Debt Debt-to-equity says how much of the business is funded by borrowings; interest cover says how many times operating profit pays the interest bill. Low and high, respectively, is the safe corner.

Virtuoso Optoelectronics Ltd carries ₹345 Cr of borrowings against ₹412 Cr of equity in FY26, a debt-to-equity of 0.84. Operating profit covers the interest bill 3×. Over 2 years borrowings went from ₹135 Cr to ₹345 Cr. Capital spending ran ₹390 Cr across the last 2 of those years.

FY26: borrowings of ₹345 Cr against equity of ₹412 Cr — a debt-to-equity of 0.84. Operating profit covers the interest bill 3×. Over 2 years borrowings went from ₹135 Cr to ₹345 Cr while capital spending ran ₹390 Cr in just the last 2 — part of the build-out is riding on borrowed money.

→ Who owns this, and are they adding or leaving? Next: Foreign institutions added 9.8 points over 8 quarters.

Ownership Who owns the stock, quarter by quarter: promoters (the controlling owners), foreign and domestic institutions, and the public. Steady accumulation by people close to the numbers is a signal; a quiet register is also an answer.

Foreign institutions added 9.8 points of Virtuoso Optoelectronics Ltd over 8 quarters, the biggest move on the register. That takes foreign institutions to 11.3% of the company. Promoters moved −7.1 points over the same window, to 49.7%. The register is read on the four disclosed classes only; nothing is inferred between filings.

The register over the last two years — Foreign institutions: +9.8 points over 8 quarters to 11.3%; Promoters: −7.1 points over 8 quarters to 49.7%; Domestic institutions: −0.4 points over 8 quarters to 0.8%.

Why the register moved: foreign institutions drove it (+9.8 points), absorbed on the other side by promoters (−7.1 points) — steady accumulation by institutions reading the same numbers this page reads.

→ One last check: does the safety math agree? Next: the balance-sheet safety line.

Safety line The Z-score estimates how far a company sits from balance-sheet distress — above roughly 3 is safe, below roughly 1.8 is the danger zone. It was built for manufacturers, so it is not applied to banks and lenders.

Virtuoso Optoelectronics Ltd: the Z-score is not available for this stock, so we say so rather than invent one. It is a distance-to-distress estimate from the balance sheet, not a forecast of failure. The debt, cash-flow and return sections above carry the balance-sheet evidence this page does hold, and each of them states its own reporting date.

The safety line in one sentence: the Z-score is not available for this stock, so we say so rather than invent one.
