EPAMEPAM Systems
Is the business good?
The checks split: earnings fully cash-backed (1.3×), but margins compressing.
Mixed fundamental signals. Nine pass/fail tests of year-over-year health from the filings.
Operating profit is fully backed by cash. Conversion is improving vs a year ago.
Negative operating leverage, costs are rising faster than sales, squeezing margins as it grows.
A balanced mix of margins, efficiency, and leverage. ROE 11% = margin × turnover × leverage.
Unless marked, from derived.
