The Walt Disney Company (DIS) on Decifer

Decifer ranks DIS number 163 of 277 tracked names on durable business quality.

Why it ranks here

• It earns solid returns on the money it puts to work, around 8% and those returns have been improving and it turns most of its profit into real cash.
• Revenue is expected to grow about 4% a year, profits grew 153% over the past year, and growth is speeding up, not slowing down.
• It keeps a healthy 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.
• Profits up 153% with improving returns around 8% is a real recovery, but revenue grows only about 4% a year, momentum sits at 4 out of 35, and there is no worldview role.
