We Like These Underlying Trends At Globus Spirits (NSE:GLOBUSSPR)
To find a multi-bagger stock, what are the underlying trends we should look for in a business? Firstly, we'd want to identify a growing return on capital employed (ROCE) and then alongside that, an ever-increasing base of capital employed. Put simply, these types of businesses are compounding machines, meaning they are continually reinvesting their earnings at ever-higher rates of return. So on that note, Globus Spirits (NSE:GLOBUSSPR) looks quite promising in regards to its trends of return on capital.
Understanding Return On Capital Employed (ROCE)
If you haven't worked with ROCE before, it measures the 'return' (pre-tax profit) a company generates from capital employed in its business. The formula for this calculation on Globus Spirits is:
Return on Capital Employed = Earnings Before Interest and Tax (EBIT) ÷ (Total Assets - Current Liabilities)
0.20 = ₹1.3b ÷ (₹8.9b - ₹2.3b) (Based on the trailing twelve months to September 2020).
So, Globus Spirits has an ROCE of 20%. On its own, that's a standard return, however it's much better than the 13% generated by the Beverage industry.
