Is Everpure undervalued? The value diligence check
Every value-investing signal this site computes for this stock, gathered in one place: the same real numbers from the tools below, not a new score.
- Margin of safety (DCF) -361.4%
- P/E vs. its own history 160.5x · the middle Real range: 126.5x–218.1x over 4 years (net income per diluted share from each fiscal year's 10-K, paired with the real closing price at that fiscal year-end).
- Wall St. analyst rating Buy · 4.07/5 27 analysts this month: 8 strong buy, 15 buy, 2 hold, 2 sell, 0 strong sell (Finnhub).
- Altman Z″-Score (bankruptcy risk) 1.43 · Grey zone
- Earnings quality (is the profit real?) Mixed · 1 flag, 1 watch Beneish M-score −2.88 · accruals −16.0% of assets · >500% of profit arrived as cash · stock comp 13.1% of revenue · share count +1.6% a year. From the latest 10-K (year to Feb 2026) - see the Earnings Quality Screener for how each check is scored.
- Shareholder yield (cash back to owners) −0.3% net Latest fiscal year (2026): dividends 0.0% + buybacks 0.8% − stock comp 1.2%, as a share of today's market cap. Stock comp outruns what comes back in cash. Over 9 years its split-adjusted share count rose 76%. See Shareholder Yield Leaders.
- Capital needed to grow (See's test) $4.30 per $1 of new profit · Capital-hungry · but only 7% return on capital Operating profit −$186M → $85M, capital needed $92M → $1.3B, 2017–2026 (3-year averages); return on capital now 7% before tax. Buffett's See's Candies needed $0.42 per $1 of new profit, FlightSafety $3.20, a typical grower about $5. See Capital-Light Compounders.
- PEG (growth at a reasonable price) 2.23 · Well above fair P/E 160.5× ÷ 71.9% a year of growth behind it. 248th lowest of 447 stocks with a usable PEG. Lynch's fair value is a PEG of 1; a very high PEG usually means almost no growth, a very low one a profit spike. See PEG Ratio Ranking.
- Compounder lenses (4) 0 of 4 · misses capital-light, real profit, cash back, price Capital-light growth: not cleared (profit started from a loss); Profit is real: not cleared (1 earnings-quality flag); Cash to owners: not cleared (−0.3% a year net); Fair price (PEG): not cleared (PEG 2.23, over 1.5). See Compounders at a Fair Price, which also lets you move the PEG bar.

What would Buffett & Lynch say?
Buffett's checklist is built around durable, profitable businesses bought at sensible prices, and P doesn't clear enough of it yet. In its favor: P is currently earning a strong return on shareholders' equity, and carries a conservative amount of debt relative to equity. Where it comes up short: P and its five-year average return on equity falls short too, so this isn't just a one-off dip, runs thinner pretax margins than he'd like to see, hasn't grown earnings per share fast enough over five years to impress him, doesn't cover its interest expense as comfortably as he'd want, is trading above what a conservative discounted-cash-flow estimate says it's worth right now, and trades rich relative to owner earnings, the real cash the business could pay out.

Lynch looked for growth stories that weren't overpriced for that growth, and P falls short of his bar. In its favor: P isn't leaning on debt to fund that growth. Where it comes up short: P doesn't clear the tighter PEG bar a fast grower needs to justify its pace, is growing earnings outside the 20-50% band he considered sustainable for a fast grower - either not fast enough to earn the label, or a pace he'd flag as unlikely to hold up, is priced above what he'd pay even for a company growing this quickly, and isn't generating enough free cash flow to justify a fast grower's richer price.

Quantitative approximations of each investor's documented approach, not endorsed by either investor or their estates - commentary, not this site's actual ranking criteria. Buffett never published a numeric checklist: only 2 of his 8 checks here trace to his own documented concepts ("owner earnings," from his 1986 shareholder letter, and "price is what you pay, value is what you get," his case against fixed P/E/P/B ceilings) - the other 6 (ROE, debt, margins, growth, interest coverage) use commonly-cited thresholds that are not numbers he himself published. The 8 hard filters below (plus the Munger check and Graham margin of safety) are this site's real, mechanical screen and are computed completely independently of the checklists above.

Doesn't cover circle of competence, management quality, or accounting concerns: those need judgment, not data.
How much have Everpure shareholders gained per year?
Not enough clean earnings history to compute this for P yet - a loss year in the window breaks the growth math rather than faking a number through it.
An earnings-based proxy, not a stock-price total return - it doesn't capture multiple expansion/contraction or reinvested dividends. EPS from P's own 10-K filings; dividend yield is the current trailing yield on today's price, from the same weekly fetch as the rest of this site.
What do Everpure's 10-year financials show?
From P's own 10-K filings (SEC EDGAR): up to the last 10 fiscal years. Press any year's bars for the exact figures.
