Ritco Logistics 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.

Ritco Logistics Ltd trades at ₹299, in a confirmed uptrend and 11 weeks into that stage. That is +11.0% against its own 200-day average. It sits at 86% of a 52-week range of ₹177 to ₹318. 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 confirmed uptrend — week 11 of stage 2, confirmed. At ₹299 it trades +11.0% versus its 200-day average and sits at 86% of its 52-week range (₹177–₹318).

Against the market, two honest reads. Cumulative: over the last 7.6 years the stock moved +309% while the NIFTY 500 moved +157% — 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.

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.

Ritco Logistics Ltd trades at 27.0× P/E, at the pricey end of its own range (94th percentile). Its long-run median P/E is 20.4×, measured across 3.3 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 27.0× is at the pricey end of its own range (94th percentile), against a long-run median of 20.4× measured over 3.3 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 −15.6% against a +10.7% price move — the price outran earnings, pushing the multiple UP its own range.

The price move, decomposed: over 3y, of the +6.1%/yr price move, ~+3.8%/yr came from earnings growth and ~+2.3 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.

What the price assumes This reading works the multiple backwards. It asks one question: what yearly rate of profit growth is a buyer at the market price already paying for? The number is the growth rate that makes eleven years of profit — six years growing, then five fading — add up to that day's market price, once each year is discounted at 11% a year.

Solved at its 13 June 2026 price, Ritco Logistics Ltd was paying for profit growth of about 14.3% a year. Profit itself has compounded 10.1% a year over the past 3 years. Today the market pays 27.0× P/E, the 94th percentile of its own 3-year range.

What the two numbers say together. The multiple is full against its own past, and the growth the price is paying for is close to what this company has actually delivered.

How to hold this number: it is a reading of one day's price, taken on 13 June 2026, not a running figure — every other number on this page, the multiple included, is read off the live quote as of 11 September 2026. A higher price is paying for more growth and a lower price for less, so it moves whenever the price does, and this page does not restate it between measurements.

Stage: Deteriorating 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).

Ritco Logistics Ltd reads as deteriorating on its fundamental arc. Deteriorating — profit and EPS growth are shrinking (profit growth −35.4% latest against +31.1% at its 12-quarter best), ROCE slipping at 10.0%. The read is built from 8 quarters across 4 curves, on partial evidence.

🚨 Why it matters: falling curves mean every cheap-looking ratio below needs a discount for direction.

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.

4-Factor Sector Score

44.8/100 — rank 11 of 18 in Logistics · 87% evidence confidence

Ritco Logistics Ltd scores 44.8 out of 100 against the 18 companies it is compared with in Logistics, ranking 11. Price leads the evidence: RS versus the benchmark is 18.5%, but earnings trajectory is weak. Wait for revenue and profit confirmation.

The four contributions add to the total exactly: 11.9 + 8.1 + 7.4 + 17.4 = 44.8. 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.

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

Ritco Logistics Ltd reported ₹365 Cr of revenue in the Jun 26 quarter, +3.0% year on year. That is the 11th straight quarter of year-on-year growth. Over 3 years it has compounded at 26.1% a year. The last full year, FY26, came in at ₹1,499 Cr. The last four reported quarters add to ₹1,510 Cr.

FY26 revenue came in at ₹1,499 Cr (+26.3% on the year), capping 3 years at 26.1% compound. The latest quarter (Jun 26) printed ₹365 Cr, +3.0% year on year — the 11th consecutive quarter of year-over-year growth.

Pace check: the last four quarters averaged +17.8% growth against the decade's 26.1% — the current year is running slower than its own long-run rate.

Acceleration check: trailing-twelve-month revenue grew +16.9% over the last 4 quarters against +24.3%/yr over the last 8 — rolling over; TTM profit −35.4% vs −12.0%/yr — rolling over.

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.

Ritco Logistics Ltd's operating margin is 6.0% in the Jun 26 quarter, −1.1 percentage points against the same quarter a year ago. Across 4 fiscal years the operating margin has ranged 7.0% to 8.0%. The current quarter is running below every full year in that window.

The latest quarter's operating margin is 6.0%, −1.1 pp against the same quarter a year ago. Across 4 fiscal years the operating margin has ranged 7.0%–8.0%.

🚨 Why the margin moved: operating margin went −1.1 pp year on year while gross margin went +1.2 pp — the loss came mostly from the gross line: input costs and pricing.

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

Ritco Logistics Ltd earned ₹3.5 Cr of net profit in the Jun 26 quarter, −61.2% year on year. Full-year FY26 profit was ₹32.0 Cr. The 3-year compound rate is 10.1%. That is 1.0% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier earned ₹8.9 Cr.

Jun 26 profit was ₹3.5 Cr, −61.2% year on year. On the full year, FY26 printed ₹32.0 Cr (−22.0%), and the 3-year compound rate is 10.1%.

🚨 Why profit moved: revenue contributed +3.0% and the margin −1.1 pp — the quarter was revenue-led, with the margin roughly flat.

Pace comparison, last four quarters: profit −35.3% vs revenue +17.8%. Profit is growing slower than sales — costs are eating the growth before it reaches the bottom line.

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 −32% of Ritco Logistics Ltd's reported profit arrived as operating cash — a gap worth watching. In FY26 that was ₹−33.0 Cr of operating cash against ₹32.0 Cr of profit. After ₹93.0 Cr of capital spending, ₹−126 Cr was left as free cash.

FY26: operating cash of ₹−33.0 Cr against reported profit of ₹32.0 Cr, leaving free cash of ₹−126 Cr after ₹93.0 Cr of capital spending. Across the last 3 fiscal years the conversion rate is −32% 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 −32%: the cash cycle held roughly steady between FY23 and FY26 — so conversion tracks profitability rather than the cycle. Less than 70% of profit arriving as cash is the thing to watch on this page.

Router verdict: the bigger cash user is investment — capital spending ran 4.0× depreciation over three years, so the next section's job is to check what that build-out is buying.

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).

Ritco Logistics Ltd's cash conversion cycle runs 121 days in FY26, up from 118 days in FY23. Capital spending ran ₹230 Cr over the last 3 years. At FY26 sales of ₹1,499 Cr each day of that cycle holds about ₹4.1 Cr, so roughly ₹497 Cr sits inside the business at any moment.

FY26: debtors at 121 days, inventory at 0 days — roughly 0.0 months of stock waiting to sell; that is where the cash sits while it waits — for a full cycle of 121 days, looser than FY23's 118.

In money terms: at FY26 sales of ₹1,499 Cr, each day of the cycle holds about ₹4.1 Cr — so the 121-day loop keeps roughly ₹497 Cr sitting inside the business at any moment.

On the investment side: capital spending of ₹230 Cr over the last 3 fiscal years against ₹58.0 Cr of depreciation — the company is building well ahead of wear-and-tear. Capital work-in-progress stands at ₹0.0 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.

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

Ritco Logistics Ltd earns a ROCE of 10% in FY26. Return on invested capital clears the cost of that capital by −6.0 percentage points, so growth here is not yet paying for the capital it uses. The wiring behind it is 2.1% net margin on 1.74× asset turns.

FY26 ROCE is 10%.

🚨 Why the return is what it is — the wiring (FY26): 2.1% net margin × 1.74× asset turns × 2.36× balance-sheet leverage ≈ 8.6% on equity. Margin does its share; leverage is a meaningful part of the equation.

The capstone test — ROIC − WACC: 6.0% − 12.0% = a −6.0 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. Negative — growth at these returns destroys value until the returns recover.

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

Ritco Logistics Ltd carries total debt of ₹474 Cr against shareholder equity of ₹358 Cr as of Mar 26, a debt-to-equity of 1.32. On the annual view that ratio went from 1.39 in FY22 to 1.32 in FY26. Read the returns elsewhere on this page with that leverage in mind.

Mar 26: total debt of ₹474 Cr against shareholder equity of ₹358 Cr — a debt-to-equity of 1.32. On the annual view, debt-to-equity went from 1.39 (FY22) to 1.32 (FY26). Read the returns on this page with that leverage in mind.

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.

Promoters cut 10.4 points of Ritco Logistics Ltd over 8 quarters, the biggest move on the register. That takes promoters to 62.7% of the company. Domestic institutions moved +2.7 points over the same window, to 2.7%. The register is read on the four disclosed classes only; nothing is inferred between filings.

The register over the last two years — Promoters: −10.4 points over 8 quarters to 62.7%; Domestic institutions: +2.7 points over 8 quarters to 2.7%; Foreign institutions: −0.4 points over 8 quarters to 0.0%.

🚨 Why the register moved: promoters drove it (−10.4 points), absorbed on the other side by domestic institutions (+2.7 points) — distribution into the market’s bid.

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.

Ritco Logistics 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.
