Assembled automatically from the figures on this page — the scans matched, their measured record, the filed financials, the derivatives positioning and the peer comparison. It is not a recommendation, no one has spoken to the company, and every claim above can be checked against a number further down this page.

What this company does

segments and revenue mix, as the company reports them
SUNDARMFIN reports 2 business segments. The largest is Asset Financing at 92% of revenue in the quarter ending 2026-03-31. On these numbers this is effectively a single-segment business, so the group result and that segment’s result move together.

Segment names are the company’s own, taken verbatim from the reportable-segment disclosure in its quarterly XBRL filing. Nothing on this page describes the business in words we wrote.

operating cash flow as a share of profit
Return on capital uses profit before tax over equity plus borrowings. The textbook version adds finance costs back; those are not tagged reliably in quarterly filings, so this understates the ratio for a heavily borrowed company rather than flattering it. Balance sheets are filed half-yearly, so these can be up to six months behind the profit figures above.

Valuation against its own history

500 sessions since 2024-09-06
24×
median 29×
32×
now 25×
SUNDARMFIN trades at 25× trailing earnings, below its median of 29× over this window — 12% less expensive than usual. The band runs from the 5th to the 95th percentile, so single-day spikes do not set the edges.
This window is short by the standards of valuation history — it begins where four quarters of filed earnings first exist. A stock can look cheap against two years and expensive against ten.

SUNDARMFIN trades at 25.1× trailing earnings against an industry median of 17.2× across 98 other classified companies in its industry — more expensive than them, by 47%.
