Sector Alpha Week of 2026-08-14
Sector Alpha — machine-written from the numbers · Data as of 2026-08-14

Macpower CNC Machines Ltd

MACPOWER
CNC - Machines

Macpower CNC Machines Ltd's price has outrun its earnings. +105.1% in a year against EPS +33.1% — the market is paying now for delivery later.

The sharpest disagreement: profits are rising, but only 46% of the last 3 years' profit arrived as operating cash — the gap between the P&L and the bank account is the thing to watch.

The price is in a confirmed uptrend (17 weeks in) while the P/E sits at the 86th percentile of its own 8-year range. Underneath, the last four quarters read improving — profit +110.1% year on year, and 46% of the last 3 years' profit arrived as cash. What settles it: whether the cash starts following the profit.

Unverified figures: Some figures on this page come from a second financial-data feed that could not be cross-checked against the primary source — the two do not share enough overlapping reported history to compare. They are drawn, because they are the only evidence there is, and every section carrying one is marked unverified. PEG is the exception: the quarterly curve is not drawn at all. PEG asks what is being paid for growth — both sides of that division come from the source that could not be checked, so it is withheld instead of marked.
01 · Price story

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.

Macpower CNC Machines Ltd trades at ₹1,749, in a confirmed uptrend and 17 weeks into that stage. That is +54.7% against its own 200-day average. It sits at 100% of a 52-week range of ₹778 to ₹1,749. On relative strength it has been ahead of the NIFTY 500 on a trailing-13-week view for 11 straight weeks.

Today the stock is in a confirmed uptrend — week 17 of stage 2, confirmed. At ₹1,749 it trades +54.7% versus its 200-day average and sits at 100% of its 52-week range (₹778–₹1,749).

Aug 26: ₹1,749 Weekly closing price (₹) with 50- and 200-day averages; shaded bands mark the price stage (grey base, green advance, amber top, red decline). 3-year window.

trailing 13-week return vs the NIFTY 500
Mar 18Aug 26

Against the market, two honest reads. Cumulative: over the last 8.4 years the stock moved +1,062% while the NIFTY 500 moved +165% — ahead of the index over the full window. Recent form: on a trailing-13-week view the stock has been ahead for 11 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.

02 · Valuation

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.

Macpower CNC Machines Ltd trades at 45.0× P/E, at the pricey end of its own range (86th percentile). Its long-run median P/E is 24.0×, measured across 8.4 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 45.0× is at the pricey end of its own range (86th percentile), against a long-run median of 24.0× measured over 8.4 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 +33.1% against a +105.1% price move — the price outran earnings, pushing the multiple UP its own range.

The price move, decomposed: over 5y, of the +53.8%/yr price move, ~+45.2%/yr came from earnings growth and ~+8.6 pp from the multiple (expanding). The split is the honest approximate (price return minus earnings growth); it makes the rally itself visible instead of hiding it behind the percentile.

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

A quarterly PEG curve, which only the second data source carries, is not drawn on this page: its two data sources do not share enough overlapping reported history to be compared. A figure nobody could check is not used to price growth — the gap is a decision, not missing data.

03 · Stage: Turning around

Stage: Turning around 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).

Macpower CNC Machines Ltd reads as turning around on its fundamental arc. Turning around — profit growth swung from −2.8% at the trough to +110.1% off a 5-quarter-old trough (single-quarter readings), ROCE lifting at 29.0%. The read is built from 9 quarters across 3 curves, on partial evidence.

Growth, year by year: revenue +27.1% in FY26, profit +36.0% Year-over-year growth per fiscal year, %: revenue (left axis); net profit and EPS (right axis — profit growth swings far wider). Zero line drawn. Turnaround-year spikes shown pinned (▲).

Where the trailing-twelve-month history is short, the curve falls back to single-quarter year-on-year growth — noisier, and the classifier smooths and caps base-effect spikes before reading. A missing point means that reading is not held for the quarter.

Why it matters: growth inflections are where re-ratings start — the curves say a turn is forming, so the question becomes whether the next quarters confirm it.

One or more growth curves carry a base-effect spike — a large year-on-year move off a near-zero or loss-making comparable quarter. Those spikes are capped before the classifier reads the trajectory, and shown pinned on the chart, so a single distorted quarter does not drive the stage call.

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.

A partial read: at least one curve is short, or the returns curve is not the computed quarterly series — hold the stage word a little more loosely.

04 · 4-Factor Sector Score

4-Factor Sector Score

77.0/100 — rank 1 of 3 in CNC - Machines · 84% evidence confidence

Macpower CNC Machines Ltd scores 77.0 out of 100 against the 3 companies it is compared with in CNC - Machines, ranking 1. Confirmed research leader: earnings, capital efficiency and relative strength agree. Move to management, catalyst and risk diligence.

The four contributions add to the total exactly: 31.3 + 18.1 + 7.6 + 20 = 77. This is the SAME number shown on the sector comparison — it is computed once, for the whole peer set, and read here.

What would change it: The read weakens if profit growth turns negative or margin improvement reverses while sector-relative strength deteriorates.

05 · Revenue

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

Macpower CNC Machines Ltd reported ₹95.2 Cr of revenue in the Jun 26 quarter, +56.1% year on year. That is the 6th straight quarter of year-on-year growth. Over 10 years it has compounded at 17.9% a year. The last full year, FY26, came in at ₹333 Cr. The last four reported quarters add to ₹367 Cr.

FY26 revenue came in at ₹333 Cr (+27.1% on the year), capping 10 years at 17.9% compound. The latest quarter (Jun 26) printed ₹95.2 Cr, +56.1% year on year — the 6th consecutive quarter of year-over-year growth.

Pace check: the last four quarters averaged +36.1% growth against the decade's 17.9% — the current year is running faster than its own long-run rate.

Acceleration check: trailing-twelve-month revenue grew +34.8% over the last 4 quarters against +21.0%/yr over the last 8 — accelerating; TTM profit +50.0% vs +22.2%/yr — accelerating.

06 · Operating margin

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.

Macpower CNC Machines Ltd's operating margin is 16.2% in the Jun 26 quarter, +3.2 percentage points against the same quarter a year ago. That is the widest this company has ever printed on a full-year basis. Across 12 fiscal years the operating margin has ranged 2.4% to 16.0%. The current quarter is running above every full year in that window.

The latest quarter's operating margin is 16.2%, +3.2 pp against the same quarter a year ago. Across 12 fiscal years the operating margin has ranged 2.4%–16.0%, and FY26's 16.0% is the top of that band — a record year.

Why the margin moved: operating margin went +3.2 pp year on year while gross margin went +0.2 pp — the gain came mostly below the gross line: operating leverage, with costs spread over a bigger revenue base.

Worth repeating from the valuation section: cheap against its own history on record margins is not the same thing as cheap — a record margin flatters every ratio built on top of it.

07 · Net profit

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

Macpower CNC Machines Ltd earned ₹9.6 Cr of net profit in the Jun 26 quarter, +110.1% year on year. It is the 5th consecutive quarter of growth. Full-year FY26 profit was ₹34.0 Cr. That is 10.1% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier earned ₹4.6 Cr.

Jun 26 profit was ₹9.6 Cr, +110.1% year on year — the 5th consecutive quarter of growth. On the full year, FY26 printed ₹34.0 Cr (+36.0%).

Why profit moved: revenue contributed +56.1% and the margin +3.2 pp — the quarter was margin-led: most of the profit growth came from keeping more of each sale.

Pace comparison, last four quarters: profit +65.0% vs revenue +36.1%. Profit is growing faster than sales — fixed costs are being spread over a bigger base, and each extra rupee of revenue drops more to the bottom line.

08 · Cash flow — the router

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 46% of Macpower CNC Machines Ltd's reported profit arrived as operating cash — a gap worth watching. In FY26 that was ₹14.0 Cr of operating cash against ₹34.0 Cr of profit. After ₹9.0 Cr of capital spending, ₹5.0 Cr was left as free cash.

FY26: operating cash of ₹14.0 Cr against reported profit of ₹34.0 Cr, leaving free cash of ₹5.0 Cr after ₹9.0 Cr of capital spending. Across the last 3 fiscal years the conversion rate is 46% of profit.

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

FY26: CFO ₹14.0 Cr vs profit ₹34.0 Cr Operating cash flow and net profit by fiscal year, ₹ Cr; the line is free cash flow (CFO minus capital spending). 11-year window, annual resolution. FY20 reflects an acquisition year — point shown clipped.

🚨 Why conversion sits at 46%: the cash cycle stretched 93 days between FY21 and FY26 — more of each rupee of profit waits inside the cycle before arriving. Less than 70% of profit arriving as cash is the thing to watch on this page.

Router verdict: conversion is below par and the cash cycle has stretched 93 days — the next section's job is to find where the cash is stuck.

09 · Where the cash goes

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).

Macpower CNC Machines Ltd's cash conversion cycle runs 182 days in FY26, up from 89 days in FY21. Capital spending ran ₹35.0 Cr over the last 3 years. At FY26 sales of ₹333 Cr each day of that cycle holds about ₹0.9 Cr, so roughly ₹166 Cr sits inside the business at any moment.

FY26: debtors at 51 days, inventory at 259 days — roughly 8.5 months of stock waiting to sell; that is where the cash sits while it waits — for a full cycle of 182 days, looser than FY21's 89.

The full loop: cash goes out to suppliers and production on day 0; stock waits 259 days to sell; customers pay about 51 days after that; and suppliers themselves are paid at 128 days — netting out to the 182-day cycle.

In money terms: at FY26 sales of ₹333 Cr, each day of the cycle holds about ₹0.9 Cr — so the 182-day loop keeps roughly ₹166 Cr sitting inside the business at any moment.

On the investment side: capital spending of ₹35.0 Cr over the last 3 fiscal years against ₹17.0 Cr of depreciation — the company is building well ahead of wear-and-tear. Capital work-in-progress stands at ₹1.0 Cr (FY26) — capacity paid for but not yet earning.

10 · Return on capital

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.⚠ unverified

Macpower CNC Machines Ltd earns a ROCE of 29% in FY26. That is up from a trough of 6% in FY20. Return on invested capital clears the cost of that capital by +11.6 percentage points, so growth here adds value rather than only size. The wiring behind it is 10.2% net margin on 1.26× asset turns.

FY26 ROCE is 29%, recovered from a FY20 trough of 6% — the full ladder below shows the fall and the climb, undoctored.

Why the return is what it is — the wiring (FY26): 10.2% net margin × 1.26× asset turns × 1.51× balance-sheet leverage ≈ 19.4% on equity. Margin does its share; leverage is modest — this is an earned return, not a borrowed one.

The capstone test — ROIC − WACC: 23.6% − 12.0% = a +11.6 pp spread. The 12.0% is a standing assumption for the cost of capital in India, not a per-stock estimate — read the sign and the size of the spread, not the decimals. A spread this wide means every rupee reinvested creates more than a rupee of value — the engine compounds.

11 · Debt

Debt Debt-to-equity says how much of the business is funded by borrowings. Low is the safe corner; the trend matters as much as the level.⚠ unverified

Macpower CNC Machines Ltd carries total debt of ₹1.0 Cr against shareholder equity of ₹175 Cr as of Mar 26, a debt-to-equity of 0.01 — effectively unlevered. On the annual view that ratio went from 0.00 in FY22 to 0.01 in FY26. The returns elsewhere on this page are therefore earned rather than borrowed.

Mar 26: total debt of ₹1.0 Cr against shareholder equity of ₹175 Cr — a debt-to-equity of 0.01. On the annual view, debt-to-equity went from 0.00 (FY22) to 0.01 (FY26). The returns on this page are earned, not borrowed.

13 · 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.

Macpower CNC Machines 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.

Missing observations are not scored as bad. Their missing weight lowers confidence and pulls the final score toward neutral. PEG is not shown when the ratio cannot mean anything: the company must be making a profit, its price-to-earnings must be positive, and its three-year earnings growth must fall between 5% and 60%. Dividing a price multiple by a loss, or by growth measured off a tiny base, produces a number that looks precise and tells you nothing. Under relative strength, one mark per week shows the last 12 weeks: a mark is filled where the company led NIFTY 500 by 5% or more over the 13 weeks ending that week, which is the same test used everywhere on this site. Price stage places the company on the same six-step curve the sector itself is placed on — basing, turning, breaking out, leader, fading, asleep — read from how many weeks running it has led NIFTY 500 and whether that lead is widening or shrinking. It describes where the PRICE stands, not the earnings trajectory and not a recommendation, and it is left blank for a company whose weekly history is too short or too stale to read.

What is Macpower CNC Machines Ltd's capex?

Macpower CNC Machines Ltd spent ₹35.0 Cr on capital expenditure over the last 3 fiscal years, a figure derived from the change in fixed assets plus depreciation.

Macpower CNC Machines Ltd generated ₹14.0 Cr of operating cash flow in FY26 and ₹5.0 Cr of free cash flow after ₹9.0 Cr of capital spending. Reported profit that year was ₹34.0 Cr, so operating cash ran behind profit. Cash-flow resolution for India is annual. — as of 14 August 2026.

Macpower CNC Machines Ltd's FY26 operating margin was 16.0%, against a 12-year band of 2.4%–16.0%: the top of the band — a record year. Record profitability is late-cycle territory: every ratio flatters at the top, and the story leans on margins holding. The latest quarter ran 16.2%. Profitability versus a company's own long band is the cleanest cycle clock this page holds — as of 14 August 2026.

What could break the Macpower CNC Machines Ltd story?

The sharpest disagreement: profits are rising, but only 46% of the last 3 years' profit arrived as operating cash — the gap between the P&L and the bank account is the thing to watch. Mechanically, two Friday closes in a row below the 200-day average would end the price trend — that is the exit rule this page tracks — as of 14 August 2026.

Is Macpower CNC Machines Ltd a stock worth studying right now?

This is not investment advice. The machine read: Macpower CNC Machines Ltd's price has outrun its earnings. +105.1% in a year against EPS +33.1% — the market is paying now for delivery later. The sharpest open question: whether the cash starts following the profit. Every number on this page is drawn deterministically from the raw series, with no forecasts and no price opinions — as of 14 August 2026.
