Sonoco Products Company (SON) on Decifer

Decifer ranks SON number 94 of 277 tracked names on durable business quality.

Why it ranks here

• Its returns on invested money are modest, around 6% and it turns most of its profit into real cash.
• Revenue is growing about 42% a year, profits grew 140% over the past year, and growth is speeding up, not slowing down.
• It keeps a thin 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.
• It is not watering down its owners with new shares and it returns cash to shareholders.
• Revenue growing about 42% a year and profits up 140% with 17 out of 35 momentum are striking, but returns around 6%, thin margins, and no worldview role limit the case.
