ServiceNow, Inc. (NOW) on Decifer

Why it ranks here

• It earns solid returns on the money it puts to work, around 9% and those returns have been improving and it turns most of its profit into real cash.
• Revenue is growing about 21% a year and profits grew 22% over the past year.
• It keeps a high 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.
• And it returns cash to shareholders.
• Our durability check found pressure on this name, which costs it a few points.
• It trades about 37% above similar companies, and its growth does not yet back up that price.
