SEAMEC Ltd

SEAMECLTD
Shipping

SEAMEC Ltd is coiled. The quarters are improving, yet the P/E sits at the 26th percentile of its own 11-year range — the business is moving before the market.

The sharpest disagreement: annual EPS moved +180.5% against a +80.0% price move — the market has not yet caught up with the delivery.

The price is in a confirmed uptrend (33 weeks in) while the P/E sits at the 26th percentile of its own 11-year range. Underneath, the last four quarters read improving — profit +6.6% year on year, and 166% of the last 3 years' profit arrived as cash. What settles it: whether the price catches up with earnings that have already moved.

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.

SEAMEC Ltd trades at ₹1,542, in a confirmed uptrend and 33 weeks into that stage. That is +15.2% against its own 200-day average. It sits at 89% of a 52-week range of ₹830 to ₹1,634. On relative strength it is currently behind the NIFTY 500 on a trailing-13-week view (12 weeks and counting).

Today the stock is in a confirmed uptrend — week 33 of stage 2, confirmed. At ₹1,542 it trades +15.2% versus its 200-day average and sits at 89% of its 52-week range (₹830–₹1,634).

Feb 16Aug 26

Against the market, two honest reads. Cumulative: over the last 10.5 years the stock moved +1,864% while the NIFTY 500 moved +284% — ahead of the index over the full window. Recent form: on a trailing-13-week view the stock is currently behind (12 weeks and counting; last ahead the week of 2026-06-12) — 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.

SEAMEC Ltd trades at 15.3× P/E, near the bottom of its own range — cheaper only 26% of the time. Its long-run median P/E is 26.7×, measured across 10.5 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 15.3× is near the bottom of its own range — cheaper only 26% of the time, against a long-run median of 26.7× measured over 10.5 years of weekly readings. This is a comparison against the stock's own history — not a claim about what it is worth.

PEG 0.08 PEG ratio per quarter — the P/E divided by the earnings-growth rate. The dashed line marks 1.0: below it the growth is cheap against the multiple, above it the price already prices the growth in. Computed here as quarter-end P/E ÷ trailing-twelve-month EPS growth (only quarters with positive growth), because a reported quarterly PEG is not held for this stock. Last 6 quarters.

Why the multiple sits where it does: over the past year annual EPS moved +180.5% against a +80.0% price move — earnings outran the price, pushing the multiple DOWN its own range.

The price move, decomposed: over 5y, of the +17.6%/yr price move, ~+36.3%/yr came from earnings growth and ~−18.7 pp from the multiple (compressing); over 10y, of the +32.6%/yr price move, ~+21.5%/yr came from earnings growth and ~+11.1 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 low against its own past, so the story rests on the earnings line underneath it, not the multiple.

03 · Stage: Mixed

Stage: Mixed 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).

SEAMEC Ltd reads as mixed on its fundamental arc. Mixed — no clean majority across the growth curves, ROCE lifting at 21.4% — the per-curve reads carry the story. The read is built from 12 quarters across 4 curves, on full evidence.

04 · 4-Factor Sector Score

4-Factor Sector Score

71.2/100 — rank 1 of 6 in Shipping · 100% evidence confidence

SEAMEC Ltd scores 71.2 out of 100 against the 6 companies it is compared with in Shipping, ranking 1. Balanced evidence: keep at normal research priority and require another comparable period before raising conviction.

The four contributions add to the total exactly: 27.1 + 16.1 + 18 + 10 = 71.2. 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.

SEAMEC Ltd reported ₹297 Cr of revenue in the Jun 26 quarter, +40.8% year on year. That is the 4th straight quarter of year-on-year growth. Over 10 years it has compounded at 11.2% a year. The last full year, FY26, came in at ₹952 Cr. The last four reported quarters add to ₹1,038 Cr.

FY26 revenue came in at ₹952 Cr (+46.0% on the year), capping 10 years at 11.2% compound. The latest quarter (Jun 26) printed ₹297 Cr, +40.8% year on year — the 4th consecutive quarter of year-over-year growth.

Pace check: the last four quarters averaged +56.8% growth against the decade's 11.2% — the current year is running faster than its own long-run rate.

Acceleration check: trailing-twelve-month revenue grew +60.2% over the last 4 quarters against +17.8%/yr over the last 8 — accelerating; TTM profit +127.2% vs +33.6%/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.

SEAMEC Ltd's operating margin is 42.0% in the Jun 26 quarter, −4.0 percentage points against the same quarter a year ago. Across 13 fiscal years the operating margin has ranged −54.0% to 44.0%. The current quarter sits inside that band.

The latest quarter's operating margin is 42.0%, −4.0 pp against the same quarter a year ago. Across 13 fiscal years the operating margin has ranged −54.0%–44.0%.

🚨 Why the margin moved: operating margin went −4.2 pp year on year while gross margin went +0.0 pp — the loss came mostly below the gross line: operating leverage, with costs spread over a bigger revenue base.

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.

SEAMEC Ltd earned ₹81.0 Cr of net profit in the Jun 26 quarter, +6.6% year on year. It is the 2nd consecutive quarter of growth. Full-year FY26 profit was ₹254 Cr. The 10-year compound rate is 48.1%. That is 27.3% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier earned ₹76.0 Cr.

Jun 26 profit was ₹81.0 Cr, +6.6% year on year — the 2nd consecutive quarter of growth. On the full year, FY26 printed ₹254 Cr (+188.6%), and the 10-year compound rate is 48.1%.

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 166% of SEAMEC Ltd's reported profit arrived as operating cash — the cash follows the profit. In FY26 that was ₹321 Cr of operating cash against ₹254 Cr of profit. After ₹399 Cr of capital spending, ₹−78.0 Cr was left as free cash.

FY26: operating cash of ₹321 Cr against reported profit of ₹254 Cr, leaving free cash of ₹−78.0 Cr after ₹399 Cr of capital spending. Across the last 3 fiscal years the conversion rate is 166% of profit.

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

FY26: CFO ₹321 Cr vs profit ₹254 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. FY23 reflects an acquisition year — point shown clipped.

316%258%200%142%84%%126%FY16FY21FY26

Why conversion sits at 166%: the cash cycle held roughly steady between FY21 and FY26 — so conversion tracks profitability rather than the cycle.

Router verdict: the bigger cash user is investment — capital spending ran 1.7× depreciation over three years, so the next section's job is to check what that build-out is buying.

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).

SEAMEC Ltd's cash conversion cycle runs 120 days in FY26, up from 112 days in FY21. Capital spending ran ₹735 Cr over the last 3 years. At FY26 sales of ₹952 Cr each day of that cycle holds about ₹2.6 Cr, so roughly ₹313 Cr sits inside the business at any moment.

FY26: debtors at 120 days (an asset-light business — no inventory to speak of) — for a full cycle of 120 days, looser than FY21's 112.

In money terms: at FY26 sales of ₹952 Cr, each day of the cycle holds about ₹2.6 Cr — so the 120-day loop keeps roughly ₹313 Cr sitting inside the business at any moment.

On the investment side: capital spending of ₹735 Cr over the last 3 fiscal years against ₹423 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.

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.

SEAMEC Ltd earns a ROCE of 20% in FY26. That is up from a trough of −32% in FY17. Return on invested capital clears the cost of that capital by +4.0 percentage points, so growth here adds value rather than only size. The wiring behind it is 26.7% net margin on 0.51× asset turns.

FY26 ROCE is 20%, recovered from a FY17 trough of −32% — the full ladder below shows the fall and the climb, undoctored.

Why the return is what it is — the wiring (FY26): 26.7% net margin × 0.51× asset turns × 1.43× balance-sheet leverage ≈ 19.5% on equity. Margin is doing the heavy lifting; leverage is modest — this is an earned return, not a borrowed one.

The capstone test — ROIC − WACC: 16.0% − 12.0% = a +4.0 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. Positive but thin — value creation with little room for error.

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.

SEAMEC Ltd carries total debt of ₹353 Cr against shareholder equity of ₹1,304 Cr as of Mar 26, a debt-to-equity of 0.27 — effectively unlevered. On the annual view that ratio went from 0.17 in FY22 to 0.27 in FY26. The returns elsewhere on this page are therefore earned rather than borrowed.

Mar 26: total debt of ₹353 Cr against shareholder equity of ₹1,304 Cr — a debt-to-equity of 0.27. On the annual view, debt-to-equity went from 0.17 (FY22) to 0.27 (FY26). The returns on this page are earned, not borrowed.

12 · Ownership

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 2.1 points of SEAMEC Ltd over 8 quarters, the biggest move on the register. That takes foreign institutions to 5.9% of the company. Domestic institutions moved −0.6 points over the same window, to 4.4%. The register is read on the four disclosed classes only; nothing is inferred between filings.

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.

SEAMEC 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.

SEAMEC Ltd spent ₹735 Cr on capital expenditure over the last 3 fiscal years, a figure derived from the change in fixed assets plus depreciation. In FY26 alone that was ₹399 Cr, with ₹0.0 Cr in capital work-in-progress — capacity paid for but not yet earning. — as of 14 August 2026.

Where is SEAMEC Ltd in its business cycle?

SEAMEC Ltd's FY26 operating margin was 42.0%, against a 13-year band of −54.0%–44.0%: mid-band by its own history — neither the peak that precedes mean-reversion nor the trough that precedes recovery. The latest quarter ran 42.0%. 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 SEAMEC Ltd story?

The sharpest disagreement: annual EPS moved +180.5% against a +80.0% price move — the market has not yet caught up with the delivery. 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 SEAMEC Ltd a stock worth studying right now?

This is not investment advice. The machine read: SEAMEC Ltd is coiled. The quarters are improving, yet the P/E sits at the 26th percentile of its own 11-year range — the business is moving before the market. The sharpest open question: whether the price catches up with earnings that have already moved. Every number on this page is drawn deterministically from the raw series, with no forecasts and no price opinions — as of 14 August 2026.
