Shopify Inc. (SHOP) on Decifer

Decifer ranks SHOP number 154 of 277 tracked names on durable business quality.

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 30% a year, profits are expected to grow 28%, 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, with profitability widening as it grows.
• It is riding an active market tailwind and has the balance sheet to fund its growth.
• We do not have a clean read on how it is run yet.
• Our durability check found pressure on this name, which costs it a few points.
• Revenue growing about 30% a year with widening margins is real progress, but returns around 9%, durability pressure, no worldview role, and 4 out of 35 momentum hold it back.

The current read

The evidence on SHOP lines up on the supportive side: a live market force supports this name through its theme connection. One signal disagrees: the longer-term story is intact, but price is not rewarding it: semiconductor stocks are down 7.3% this week. The drop is large enough to signal near-term caution, worth watching but not the weight of the evidence.

Themes

• Software, Cloud & AI Platforms: Shopify Inc. operates in software - application. That places it inside the Software, Cloud & AI Platforms story.
