To find a multi-bagger stock, what are the underlying trends we should look for in a business? One common approach is to try and find a company with returns on capital employed (ROCE) that are increasing, in conjunction with a growing amount of capital employed. Ultimately, this demonstrates that it's a business that is reinvesting profits at increasing rates of return. Speaking of which, we noticed some great changes in Sungrow Power Supply's (SZSE:300274) returns on capital, so let's have a look.

Understanding Return On Capital Employed (ROCE)

For those that aren't sure what ROCE is, it measures the amount of pre-tax profits a company can generate from the capital employed in its business. Analysts use this formula to calculate it for Sungrow Power Supply:

Return on Capital Employed = Earnings Before Interest and Tax (EBIT) ÷ (Total Assets - Current Liabilities)

0.24 = CN¥12b ÷ (CN¥106b - CN¥56b) (Based on the trailing twelve months to September 2024).

Therefore, Sungrow Power Supply has an ROCE of 24%. That's a fantastic return and not only that, it outpaces the average of 5.8% earned by companies in a similar industry.

What Can We Tell From Sungrow Power Supply's ROCE Trend?

We like the trends that we're seeing from Sungrow Power Supply. Over the last five years, returns on capital employed have risen substantially to 24%. The company is effectively making more money per dollar of capital used, and it's worth noting that the amount of capital has increased too, by 391%. This can indicate that there's plenty of opportunities to invest capital internally and at ever higher rates, a combination that's common among multi-baggers.

On a separate but related note, it's important to know that Sungrow Power Supply has a current liabilities to total assets ratio of 53%, which we'd consider pretty high. This can bring about some risks because the company is basically operating with a rather large reliance on its suppliers or other sorts of short-term creditors. Ideally we'd like to see this reduce as that would mean fewer obligations bearing risks.

The Key Takeaway

To sum it up, Sungrow Power Supply has proven it can reinvest in the business and generate higher returns on that capital employed, which is terrific. And a remarkable 906% total return over the last five years tells us that investors are expecting more good things to come in the future. In light of that, we think it's worth looking further into this stock because if Sungrow Power Supply can keep these trends up, it could have a bright future ahead.
