Carpenter Technology Corporation (CRS) on Decifer

Why it ranks here

  • It earns strong returns on the money it puts to work, around 17% and those returns have been improving.
  • Revenue is expected to grow about 10% a year, profits grew 41% over the past year, and growth is speeding up, not slowing down.
  • It keeps a healthy share of every sale as profit, with profitability widening as it grows.
  • It is riding an active market tailwind and has the balance sheet to fund its growth.
  • And it returns cash to shareholders.
