Dell Technologies Inc. (DELL) on Decifer
Why it ranks here
- It earns strong returns on the money it puts to work, around 15% and those returns have been improving and it turns most of its profit into real cash.
- Revenue is expected to grow about 21% a year, profits grew 38% over the past year, and growth is speeding up, not slowing down.
- It keeps a thin share of every sale as profit, and that has stayed steady over the years, a sign of real pricing power, with profitability widening as it grows.
- It is riding an active market tailwind and has the balance sheet to fund its growth.
- It is not watering down its owners with new shares and it returns cash to shareholders.
- Our durability check found pressure on this name, which costs it a few points.
- Its profit margin and growth are both unusually high right now compared to its own history, the kind of combination that often fades once conditions normalize.
- DELL is one of 2 credible suppliers of aI server integration and delivery for the thesis: The world is committing capital to AI compute and its consequences faster than to any infrastructure in history, and this reorganizes demand in nearly every sector, not just technology. The market has partly recognized this, but not fully.
