Decifer ranks GGG number 255 of 270 tracked names on durable business quality.

Why it ranks here

• It earns strong returns on the money it puts to work, around 18% and it turns most of its profit into real cash.
• Revenue is growing about 6% a year, profits grew 9% over the past year, and growth is speeding up, not slowing down.
• It keeps a high share of every sale as profit, and that has stayed steady over the years, a sign of real pricing power.
• 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.
• Returns near 18% are stalled by revenue growing only 6% and momentum of 4 out of 35 below trend with no growth story.
