Creating this ad-hoc thread to share my process.

Imagine what you want in a company, codify it in the form of filters, create a screen. Example below:
AND
Market Capitalization < 3000
AND
((Average return on capital employed 5Years > 25 AND
Price to Earning < 20) OR
(Average return on capital employed 5Years > 15 AND
Price to Earning < 10))
AND
Sales growth 5Years > 10
AND
...
Operating cash flow 5years /5 < Operating cash flow 3years /3
AND
Operating cash flow 7years /7 < Operating cash flow 3years /3"
smallcaps with a min mcap,
which have a bare minimum average ROCE & valuation accordance to the unit economics
which are also growing topline
and where operating cash flows are also increasing, on an average basis
One first needs to have a thought about what one is looking for, then one can codify it in screener. Another type of cos i look for are turn-arounds.
AND
(short term sales growth > 7 OR medium term sales growth > 7)
AND
(short term opm growth > 10 OR medium term opm growth > 10)
AND
Market Capitalization < 2000
AND
medium term ocf profit ratio > 0.3
AND
ROIC > 12
2. looking through PF of & tracking super-investors.
For funds/people with sizable PF sizes like @LuckyInvest_AK sir & @SunilBSinghania sir
I track trendlyne portfolios to generate ideas.
1. Study https://t.co/3jeqlXO0QH thread for the company
2. Study company's conference calls, investor presentations
3. Study industry structure through industry reports, webinars on YT
4. Study company's annual report
6. Estimate future growth rates for industry and company's competitive positioning
7. Assign a fair value range for the company
(i) there is significant discount to fair value
& (ii) significant sales & profit growth visibility & triggers
& (iii) Sources of durable competitive advantages which act as the 'moat' around the profit growth and market shares.

#neulandlab 🌋🌋 read on to understand this company and its story of transformation. On twitter, 🌋 has become synonymous with neuland, and this is how i will use it throughout the thread. If you like the thread, plz retweet & help fellow investors learn
Starting with a simple primer on the Pharma industry. They make medicines for all of us. The part of the medicine which gives it its potency against the ailment it cures is called API: Active Pharmaceutical
(here is a reference few people will get, but have to make it since I love it :D):
If Guardians of the globe (https://t.co/vH2C1TDbPy) were a medicine, Omniman (https://t.co/0DGb1MAtXN) is the API.
Back to 🌋. There are pharma companies which sell APIs as well as the finished medicine (FDF: Finished Dosage Formulation). Neuland are pureplay API manufacturers. This provides them some advantage since they don't compete with their clients (the FDF makers).
Medicine is diverse. There are medicine which were first discovered in 1920s (https://t.co/6DXNrhOK46), to those being created now (https://t.co/tcr7dAexmO). Naturally then, some of this involves very complex chemistry to manufacture, others are relatively easier to manufacture.

Most of market does not beat the market by a lot. Which is alright.
In any activity the distribution of outcomes follows bell curve (Gaussian).
Those that are willing to put in effort reap the benefits. 😀
