Kinross Gold Corporation (KGC) on Decifer

Decifer ranks KGC number 255 of 277 tracked names on durable business quality.

Why it ranks here

• It earns strong returns on the money it puts to work, around 22% and those returns have been improving and it turns most of its profit into real cash.
• Revenue is growing about 39% a year, profits grew 158% over the past year, and growth is speeding up, not slowing down.
• It keeps a high 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.
• It is not watering down its owners with new shares and it returns cash to shareholders.
• 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.
• Returns around 22% and profits up 158% are strong on paper, but the margin and growth mix often fades, it has no worldview role, and momentum is nearly absent at 1 out of 35.
