Okta, Inc. (OKTA) on Decifer

Decifer ranks OKTA number 200 of 277 tracked names on durable business quality.

Why it ranks here

• Its returns on invested money are modest, around 2% and those returns have been improving and it turns most of its profit into real cash.
• Revenue is growing about 12% a year and profits grew 688% 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.
• Profits grew 688% and momentum of 27 out of 35 is strong, but returns near 2%, durability pressure, and no worldview role mean the move is running ahead of the business.
